What's the benefit for that? I don't see any trouble with e.g.
tt_content elements pointing to a deleted page, but not having the
deleted flag set. TYPO3 should be able to handle this case. [1]

If you mark all elements of a page as deleted, you have trouble when you
want to restore the page, as you dont't know any more which elements
weren't marked as deleted when the page was. So you can restore all
(which means old deleted elements, too) or none of the elements of a page.

page, the "insert data" displays nothing.
