I've always seen the feature the following way:

1. When you can self-register, you pretty much are your own person and thus decide over your own account.
2. If you are registered by an external authentication method or even just added by CSV file and the admin does not allow self-registration, your institution would like you to keep an ePortfolio and thus you shouldn't delete it or maybe even delete it accidentally, e.g. when it may be used for assessment purposes.

How do you see it from an institutional point of view?

Title:
  Let (non-self-registered) users de-register from Mahara

Status in Mahara ePortfolio:
  Triaged

Bug description:
  Mahara 1.8

  A colleague would like to see an option for users who have not self-
  registers to delete their account. "What about the ability to
  unregister? Seems to me that that is a pretty basic requirement. It
  confirms in each student's mind that anything put up is owned by the
  student, and that any decisions on whether to participate or opt-out
  are entirely under each student's control."

  This feature exists for users who have self registered, is it
  something that could be done for other users? pros/cons?

  Thanks,
  Shane.
