I have pushed a branch that fixes this for master/3.3: user/dyrcona/lp1802166-purge-preferred-names in the working repository.

I had made a branch for 3.2, but realized that backporting this fix is dangerous because there are other changes to the actor.usr_delete function between rel_3_2 and master. If the rel_3_2 function and the master function have the same upgrade number, then someone could update their 3.2 installation and miss getting the new features of actor.usr_delete when upgrading to 3.3 or beyond later.

Because of this, I have set the 3.2 target for this bug to Won't Fix. If someone thinks we should fix this in 3.2, I can push the branch, but whoever merges this into master and rel_3_2 will need to know to use different upgrade numbers for each branch. (I think I've seen this done in one or two cases prior to this.)
