elsloo commented on issue #2017: TP, TO API should allow for 'delete' of users

   @mitchell852 suggested adding a column, say, "active," on the user table to disable a user. We could then switch to a view for some APIs that return users to exclude any disabled users, while allowing us to retain changelog history associated with the inactive user. For example, the API that performs authentication needs to find a user; if that API uses the view, any inactive user that attempts to authenticate would be rejected due to not being found in the view.
   
   Just some ideas, but I do like the idea of retaining the changelog history and any other ancillary fingerprints that might exist elsewhere in the system.
