I forgot to ask about why this feature even needs to be added.
Currently BitPim has the nice attribute that it never loses your data.
The deletion feature will help lose data.  It won't save much space
since the data is stored by reference not value, and the size of the
database is trivial compared to the various items of multimedia (images
etc).  Heck I would wager that for the vast majority of users, the
database is smaller than a single image from the camera.

What I think would be way more interesting is a timeline view that shows
all changes (phonebook, calendar etc) going back into the past.
Something like this:

 http://www.sqlite.org/cvstrac/timeline

But phonebook entries, sms entries etc.
