Earlier in the thread James Snell pointed out that RFC4287
doesn't seem to 
allow any elements between or after the <atom:entry>
elements in a 
<atom:feed> element.

Also, It would only be useful if the deleted-entries
elements were required 
to be in order along with the entries; otherwise, the client
would have to 
parse the whole feed anyway for out-of-order tombstones.

...and that's not exactly what I was suggesting; I only
meant that the  
at:deleted-entry should appear in the same feed document
(i.e., page)  
as its contemporary atom:entry's.

Cheers,
