I mean, pretending to be someone in another instance, “stealing” the username, is trivial. I see the more likely targets being instance admins or high profile users. Should we worry somewhat about this?

Hah, I didn’t know, because it seems deletion is currently not federating, at least not to my instance.
I had an even weirder issue a while ago, my comment was accidentally deleted and then restored by a mod. The restoration did not federate, so people from the original instance could reply to my comment, but those replies would not exist for me (as mod deletion is stronger than user deletion) and I couldn’t see them until I went to the original instance.
