Is there a way to purge IP logs stored by Discourse, at least the old ones? If not, do you plan to implement such functionality?

Discourse is used by dissident communities in authoritative countries (Russia, Iran etc.) and one of the complains is that storing IPs indefinitely poses a grave risk for community members if an administrative account gets compromised by authorities.
