You would need to recursively walk all filesystems to find files owned by a particular user. As you just run it on your system, you know how long that will take. Clearly not an option to do this before/after every install/uninstall. And what would you gain from that? A free uid. They are not a scarce resource, so I do not think the effort would be justified.
