You should be able to test edits which are deleted if you can view the edits. Currently, deleted edits aren't returned, so you can't test filters against them. Not sure if that should be true for oversighted / sysop-can't-view revisions too... probably.
If they're not in the recentchanges table, it's going to be need a complete rewrite of the after-the-fact variable generation.
Marking this bug as Lowest priority. I've done this in a batch to (usually enhancement request) bugs where: * It is not clear that this bug should be fixed. * It is not clear how to fix this bug. * There are difficulties or complications in fixing this bug, which are not justified by the importance of the bug. * This is an extremely minor bug that could not be fixed in a few lines of code. If you're interested in having one of these bugs fixed, your best bet is to write the patch yourself.
