Correct..I presume that in this case we don't delete any users? As deleting a user who is logged in is..bad.
Not sure how bad it is, it is a quite rare condition. A user that is logged in for days and days past all expiration timeouts ... even if we delete it, as soon as the system needs to retrieve info about it it will be fetched back. Of course pure users or groups enumerations would be sort of inconsistent ...
I say we delete it w/o doing the check for now.
Simo.
