How do I unlink a user from a facebook account?

I've figured out how to do this on the Facebook end (http://www.facebook.com/editapps.php), but the Facebook connect tab still has a line saying "Your account is linked with your Facebook account." There seems to be a missing step -- the user information isn't being deleted from the fbconnect_users table.

Post-Remove URL functionality needs implementing in the Drupal module. Details on http://wiki.developers.facebook.com/index.php/Logging_Out_And_Disconnect...

Has anyone got the broad strokes of what's needed to implement this? Kind of a newbie at Drupal development (mainly hacking around code thus far) but willing to get involved if i knew where to start.

the fbconnect.module would need to implement a menu callback that receives a POST of data to it from facebook side. The menu url is set in the Facebook.com app configuration side.

Using the wiki page above, receive the POST data in and find the matching user on the drupal side and remove their facebook account details. I guess you'll need to just reverse whatever happens in the fbconnect.module when somebody first connects their account?

Until there is a function to do this in the module - is it advisable to delete unlinked users from the fbconnect database?

If so - which tables in fbconnect_users and fbconnect_profile need to be dropped?

Thanks
