Description

It happens quite often at Planio that we have to support users who accidentally deleted something. Often, a Javascript alert box is simply dismissed by the user without actually grasping it's message, leading to unintended consequences. Especially in the case of deleted user accounts, a lot of information is lost and hard to restore from a backup.

The first patch in this issue introduces an explicit confirmation page (similar to when deleting a project) which requires to enter the login of the user to be deleted in order to confirm the deletion. It also suggests locking the user as a safer option instead and offers a button to do so.

The second patch changes the project deletion page to require the user to enter the identifier of the project to be deleted, instead of just ticking a checkbox, just to make it a bit harder to delete the wrong project by accident.
