Pointless Pools

Because that has a use, though. If you can't access the deleted images from the pool, what is the empty pool doing?

In the case that they are undeleted later, we'll still have the information about them. Pools containing only deleted posts should be hidden from the index, just as tags containing only deleted posts have a tag count of 0.

Doing what pools do. Run a search on "pool:XXX status:deleted", click one of the posts, and you can still navigate around.
