Description

@mrsumanbiswas

Allow users to permanently delete or temporarily disable their account.

Backend

  • POST /api/users/me/delete – permanently deletes account and all associated data (messages, tokens, files)
  • POST /api/users/me/disable – disables the account (user can re‑activate later)
  • Handle cleanup: remove from groups, notify contacts (optional), schedule data removal

Frontend

  • Add “Delete Account” and “Disable Account” options in settings, with clear warnings and confirmation steps
  • Require password re‑entry before proceeding

Make sure the process is irreversible for deletion and that data protection is respected.

    Done: the backend (#89) and frontend (#90) both shipped in #168 and were released in v0.3.2. Disabling an account without deleting it isn't planned for now; open a new issue if you need it.
