:) Thanks for keeping a look out. Indeed, this is already changed
in the "next-gen" aurweb. When released, __all__ package deletions
(and merges) will either accept and close pending requests about
them or autogenerate a request and send an accepted closure notification
to the aur-requests ML. We'll keep with this flow when deleting
packages permanently (hopefully).

In addition, they are also logged out to the ASGI server now, so
even without requests, we have better tracking of what's going on.
