Comments - DELETE

Can the storage engines be configured to securely erase a row when it's deleted? (For an in-memory table, that would mean explicit_bzero; for one stored on disk, it'd mean what the wipe(1) command does in the Debian package wipe.)

TRUNCATE TABLE should probably do this asynchronously after returning, since people will assume that it returns in O(1) time.
