Not likely as the record cannot be matched to anything and is useless.  If anything, the problem would be is the user was on that record and hit d-delete.

More than likely my client is going to have me prevent record deletion form the primary screen and on another require a password before a record can be deleted.

Of course I could always use @keyD and only allow deletion if that field is empty, otherwise prompt for a password. - Better programming.
