Retiring nodes can have implications down the 
line -- see SF bug 685273.

Could roundup-admin be enhanced to make 
dealing with retired items easier? Three 
suggestions:

a) display <designator> shows the node, retired or 
active: would be useful if the display distinguised 
retired nodes from active nodes. Possibly a header 
on the displayed information:

roundup> display user7
user7 [retired]
-----
username: XX
etc

b) table <class> shows only active nodes of the 
class: would be useful to also see retired nodes 
and/or see the active/retired status of each.

c) new command unretire <designator> to move a 
retired node back into active service.

The unretire command already exists as restore.

Would reporting the retired status of the displayed item:

realname: None
retired: yes/no
roles: Admin, Repair

be sufficient?

It looks like internally a retired item has a flag:

__hyperdb_retired

maybe just exposing this would be helpful?

Also searching/find for retired items should be added as well.

Consider implementing a command like "option showretired=True"
possible values true/false.

If True all command that would ignore retired items show them with
some indication they are retired. This would affect case b in the
original request and possible find/filter.

See also issue2551103 for another possible use for options command.
