Hello. I’m running one self-hosted Discourse site and am setting up another. I can’t immediately see how a user can delete their account or request that it be deleted/anonymised. It would be good if that were straight forward. Is this possible? (Unsubscribing from mails is a different thing).  
To keep things simple, we’ve disabled personal messages.

Thanks, Chris
