 There should be a possibility to flag a user account as "disabled". A
 disabled user should
 1. not be able to log in to WordPress anymore, and
 1. not receive any email notifications (e.g. comment notifications)
 anymore, but
 1. all the posts he wrote should still be assigned to him.

 This is useful in the case that an author or editor of a WordPress blog
 leaves the company and they would like to delete his user account.
 However, if they did, they'd have to delete all his posts or assign them
 to another user.

 post] lists some possible workarounds, but none of them satisfies all
 three requirements stated above.
