Not in pre release versions where you are releasing new versions all the while and therefore people will (are expected to) uninstall/reinstall. The uninstall code is for people who no longer want the hack. Deleting the tables of people who are testing your hack is a very poor thing to do and is one reason I no longer test this. I posted the fact very early on in the thread but nothing changed so I stopped using it. Trashing my tables is not something I appreciate.
(btw, as a seperate issue - I personally don't see the need to ever remove tables as part of an automatic uninstall, they don't do any harm if left, and people can make up their own minds to remove them if they want).
