Oh, I was thinking you were proposing changing the second part of the
above: that a trace "can't do anything to stop it".  To bring that inline
with variable traces (where the trace can throw an error to stop an
'unset') is what my comments referred to.

I believe I may have code that assumes the command still exists during the
trace, but I don't have any that assumes the trace can't stop the delete.
