Issue Summary
Dear Drupal Gurus,
I have a website on which users can register themselves, but administrators review their applications and can either approve or decline them. When admins decide not to register wrongly filled applications they delete them. However, Short Url module's data tables have all the urls automatically created when a user applies for registration, and they are not destroyed even when the user has been deleted. This fills up database tables for no reason and seems, to me at least, important issue that deserves to be solved to the benefit of all the Drupal community.
Probably, this issue is related to path, autopath or taxonomy modules. I was not sure where to post this issue and thought that it has more to user.module than to others.
Thanks for attention.

A mistype "whould" in the title to be read "should". Please correct it someone with right permission.

This is not a core issue. Contrib modules are responsible for cleaning up their data. Drupal core provides hooks that enable this.
This bug was originally filed against Drupal 5.1, it's probably no longer relevant to the current code base of Short URL.

I don't understand the issue description Short URL does not create aliases automatically and it has nothing to do with user registration so I can't see how the two are related. I assume some other module uses shorturl for something, in which case that module/code should clean up as well.
