Happy to restore the "unhide" action, but I'm still a bit confused. When a user self-deletes, their data is scrubbed. How do admins know that the scrubbed users is the same?

Although... I'm seeing now that `email` is not scrubbed (`new_email` is). So I'm guessing that's how these accounts are identified? Do admins "unhide" these users, leaving them to log in and set their (hitherto scrubbed) username, etc themselves?

If the above is right, I would have thought this would be a GDPR issue, not scrubbing their email. I'm assuming this has been discussed and deemed acceptable?

Are you ok with me restoring only the "unhide" in user/list, leaving the action out of user/show?
