Comment:

 So, deleting metadata is still on the table, right? I'd like to take this
 on, but preferably someone can suggest which way is preferred:

 Deleting metadata...
 * a) with a single `$wpdb` query or
 * b) using `bp_xprofile_delete_meta()` which fires subsequent hooks in
 `delete_metadata`

 when...
 * i) right in `BP_XProfile_Field::delete()` or
 * j) hooked on the `xprofile_field_after_delete` action (since 3.0)?
