no. it means you will delete the n first tuples that happen to be
found, if you don't have a WHERE clause that means is very possible
you delete something you don't want to... the correct solution is to
use always try DELETE's inside transactions and only if you see the
right thing happening issue a COMMIT
besides i think this has been proposed and rejected before
