 > @mnelson4 I'm not sure if this is the //recommended// way, but the
 approach I am taking is to have additional plugin settings that allow
 users to define what happens when data is erased.

 Yep, that's the right way to do things as we discussed in Slack few weeks
 ago. The plugins "know" what data they store and what needs erasing, and
 if the admin should be able to control what gets erased.
