Like I said, it's configured through the 'home' parameter. We also need a flag in backends.php to disable (or rather to enable) removeUserData for individual backends completely. Probably still won't work for any backup that requires the user's credentials to login.

The patch works for my Gollem setup, but I agree that it might not be general enough. Any suggestions for better detection of user home directory?

The patch make too many assumptions about where the user directory is. This is configurable though through the 'home' parameters for the VFS backend and Gollem in backends.php. Simply using this to delete the home folder is not a good idea either though. Common setups that use a shared file storage for all users have the same home for any user.

removeUserData is present in other applications API and allows deleting of all data for the given user. Attached patch adds this function to Gollem API.
