I think pg should work, but ps and pedit should not (unless --force is
passed) since the object has been scheduled to not exist "soon". But
I can see how others might prefer different behavior(s). I'm really
not sure there's one Right Answer here.

The errors above, "is not under version control" seem definitely
wrong, though. They should say "is scheduled for deletion", if
anything.
