You have read my message carelessly. Read this cite again please. I have wrote
about possibility to delete a package manually. But option for _automatic_
deletion in an _account_settings_ is not the same that a hyperlink for manual
deletion in a package page.

Sounds good. This is a really important function.

Unfortunately I have no enough free time to investigate this code and make own
patches. Maybe I will look it later. Very later...

Thanks for reply.
