It'd be nice if we could delete all of our client records on uninstall, too. Note that client records are TTLed, so after three weeks the old records should disappear. If a user ran a really old version of Android Sync, it'll perhaps have left TTL-less records on the server. In that case, a node reassignment will eventually clean up.

I remember there being a bug whereby it was requested to have the ability to remove devices from sync. I can't for the life find the bug number though.

Test instructions: This is easiest to test with two distinct Android devices and a fresh Sync account. 1. pair first Android device to fresh Sync account. 2. verify Sync is correct, and look for logs like: I FxSync(12791) fennec_ncalexan :: SyncAdapter :: Syncing account named nalexander+test0724@mozilla.com for authority org.mozilla.fennec_ncalexan.db.browser. I FxSync(12791) fennec_ncalexan :: SyncAdapter :: Client is named 'Fennec ncalexan on Transformer Prime TF201', has client guid FQ_4HyD-5uQP, and has 0 clients. Make a note of the client name and guid (in this case, 'Fennec ncalexan on Transformer Prime TF201' and FQ_4HyD-5uQP). 3. from Fennec, browse to a page and select Share > Firefox Sync. 4. verify your client name appears in target list. 5. from Android > Settings > Accounts & sync, select Sync account and delete it. 6. verify logs like: I FxSync(12791) fennec_ncalexan :: SyncAuthService :: Account named nalexander+test0724@mozilla.com being removed; deleting saved pickle file 'sync.account.json'. I FxSync(12791) fennec_ncalexan :: SyncAuthService :: Account named nalexander+test0724@mozilla.com being removed; deleting client record from server. ... I FxSync(12791) fennec_ncalexan :: ClientRecTerminator :: Deleted client record with GUID FQ_4HyD-5uQP from server. Your client GUID should appear in the log. To verify client record is really deleted from the server: 7. pair second Android device to Sync account. 8. from Fennec, browse to a page and select Share > Firefox Sync. 9. verify the old client name does NOT appear in target list.
