Correction: I *did* get a warning that the photos would be deleted, but then I 
also got an alert when iPhoto discovered it no longer had permission to do the 
deletion.

Also, I see that the "Delete" privilege on Flickr is defined as 
Read+Write+Delete.

I don't plan to re-enable Flickr integration in iPhoto.  It seems very poorly 
thought through.
