and the user's group?
I'm using a gui and it protests:
..
Deleting a managed entry is not allowed. It needs to be 
manually unlinked first.]
..
I've already have the user removed.

Would be great if coming new versions account for this 
situation and provide users/admin with tool(s) that can take 
care of.

many thanks,
L.
