What version are you running?
1.0.1


What's the URL of the page this enhancement relates to, if any?
n/a


Describe the enhancement and the motivation for it.
I would like a user to be able to delete a review that they have created
without having to publish it first. The current workaround is for users to
publish the review to themselves, which is not ideal.


What operating system are you using? What browser?
Windows XP, Firefox


Please provide any additional information below.

This works fine today. You can press the "Discard" button to get rid of it. Is this
somehow not working for you?

sorry chip, but no, it doesn't work. Pressing the "Discard" button just discards it,
but it's still kicking around in the pipeline. I want to actually delete it,
permanently. Sadly, aren't given the option to do that unless the review has first
been published, which is somewhat counter-intuitive.

Actually, I don't think this is super necessary. "Delete" is only an action which is exposed for admin users, and not something we particularly encourage.
