That said, what is the value of reusing atom:entry in this case?
Why is this...
<entry>
<id>tag:example.org,2007:/the/only/useful/thing/here</id>
<updated>2007-12-12T12:12:12Z</updated>
<title>useless</title>
<author><name>useless</name></author>
<summary>useless</summary>
</entry>
Better than this:
<x:deleted>
<id>tag:example.org,2007:/the/only/useful/thing/here</id>
<updated>2007-12-12T12:12:12Z</updated>
</x:deleted>
Or even just this:
<x:deleted>
<id>tag:example.org,2007:/the/only/useful/thing/here</id>
</x:deleted>
Two things:
1: what you deleted was an entry.
2: you might want to know the properties of the entry that was deleted,
not just its name.
