re: when users leave

I think the labs policy was to change the name of the user from
	frank:frank
to
	was-frank:frank

the first name is what is used by auth and is reported by dirstat()
the seccond name is what is held on the disk (ken fs uses integers here).

Beware: this is from memory, I have not tested this.

-Steve
