Comment (by cgrymala):
I've just uploaded a series of screenshots that, hopefully, show the flow
of this process.
In Step 3, you'll notice that clicking to expand the Select with the list
of usernames doesn't check the "Attribute all content to:" radio button; I
feel like it would be logical for that to happen. I can't imagine a user
expanding that select without intending to check that radio button.
Also, I may be wrong, but I don't believe there's any process to actually
verify whether the user being deleted has any content on each of the sites
listed. Instead, every site of which that user is a member is listed in
this list. For a user that was a Super Admin, but didn't actually create
much content, this process is overly cumbersome on a large network. It
would be nice if, before asking what to do with the user's content on a
particular site, the system attempted to check whether the user actually
had any content on that site. There is no reason to ask what to do with
the user's content if the user has no content. I do realize, though, that
this may add a lot of overhead and resource usage to this process.
