Suggestion or question. Is there a lambda trigger for a user being deleted or an expired unverified sign up in a cognito user pool?

Question

Seems like adding that would make setting up resources for a new user using triggers feel safer, since you can tear them down after.
One use case I have is to start generating resources while waiting for email verification, then if they don't validate in the time frame, tear them down when cognito calls.

Deleting a user would generate an `AdminDeleteUser` log in AWS CloudTrail, which could then be read by Amazon EventBridge. See [Accessing AWS Service Events via AWS CloudTrail.](https://docs.aws.amazon.com/eventbridge/latest/userguide/eb-service-event.html#eb-service-event-cloudtrail)

You could then trigger a Lambda for your clean up based on that EventBridge event.
