 Currently we orphan all of the posts and send them to the trash.

 I can't imagine that being desired behavior. We specifically tell them
 we're deleting the posts and give them a confirmation screen (and an
 option to port them to an existing user).

 Marking version at 2.9, as that's when wp_delete_post() became trash by
 default. Presumably it can be seen back that far.

 Not sure how this wasn't caught until now. A related bug was originally
 reported by flashingcursor on Twitter.
