At the moment, the body of deleted comments can be styled from CSS thanks to this CSS selector:
```lang=css
.phui-timeline-core-content .comment-deleted {
...
}
```
So, you can style the body, that contains this text:
This comment was removed by <USER>
The problem is: you can only style the //content//, and not the whole parent block, since there is not a selector associated to the whole parent container.
This feature would be useful, for example, to style deleted comments in order to make them semi-transparent. Here a cursed example:
{F271399}
== Acceptance criteria ==
1. when a comment is removed, that container has not //just// the CSS class `phui-timeline-shell` but also an additional one to identify that case. For example: `phui-timeline-shell-removed`
== Implementation Notes ==
- The base CSS class `phui-timeline-shell` is set from `PHUITimelineEventView#render()`
- → it seems we need to call `->addClass('phui-timeline-shell-removed')` or override `->getClasses()` to return that
- → the problem is: it's unclear who should call `addClass()`, or where `getClasses()` should be overridden
- Probably we should add some business logic from `PhabricatorApplicationTransaction` to communicate this preference
