Comment (by rogercoathup):

 @r-a-y -- thanks for work on this, so many catches and interactions to
 worry about.

 Seconding @boonebgorges, re: deleting activity items shouldn't perhaps
 force deletion of blog comments.

 From a UX perspective, we have sites where the activity items are deleted
 simply to clear up front end display, draw focus to other activity items
 and so on.  There's no intention to remove underlying data in this case...
 so, deleting corresponding blog comments in this case would not be
 desirable.

 I suggest best 'default' UX would be to delete corresponding blog comment
 when the specific comment is deleted on the activity item, but not to
 delete all comments when the activity item itself is deleted.

 Perhaps behaviour should be a wp-admin switch, so configurable as needed
 for a given site -- but, understand this doubtless adds considerably to
 the workload.
