Description

Issue #416 explains how an administrator may process a request for destroying a vault.

However, the hidden location of the queue display makes it unlikely that an administrator naturally would find a newly queued item.

If the application could place a notification on the activity feed for administrators, then it is likely they would discover the request promptly.

As a further note, some administrators may prefer to allow users to elect to destroy vaults. If a vault is owned exclusively by a user, then it is unclear why the request must be approved.

Research direction

Start by reading issue #416 to understand how vault-destruction requests are processed, then trace the queue display and the administrator activity feed. Define whether a new activity notification should cover every destruction request and how the optional user-controlled destruction proposal affects approval; done means administrators promptly discover queued requests without relying on the hidden queue.
