Comment (by ericdaams):

 I am testing the latest patch alongside the latest ones from #43637 and
 #43442, and wanted to bring up a couple user experience/interface issues:

 It feels odd to me that admin can go ahead and remove personal data
 ''without'' getting a user's confirmation. This seems likely to lead to
 mistakes on the part of admin accidentally removing the personal data.

 On the flipside, once a user ''has'' confirmed their request, the data
 removal link is gone, replaced by the button on the right. There are
 visual issues with the button on smallish screens.

 (Nevermind that stray arrow. Too lazy to fix the screenshot. :))
