I really don't see a need for this. If you want to accomplish something 
like this, enable the option for moving messages to trash when 
deleting. If you enable that, the hide and purge deleted commands won't 
be shown anymore (and there's a new button called empty trash at the 
menu). At the maintenance options you can define how often the trash 
folder will be emptied and/or how old messages are removed.

Maybe this should be stated in the FAQ (if it isn't there yet)?
