Keep a group’s profile photos cached for a while, after deleting the group, If I delete the chat from a group I’m still a member of, when I receive a new message it’s displayed without a profile picture, If we store the profile picture for a week or two this ensures that when we receive a new message, the group will be displayed with the corresponding profile picture. ---

don’t like this idea, if the group is deleted, IMHO there should not be garbage left, also for privacy reasons, the reason for deleting a chat without leaving is to clear the chat, which is another problem that should be solved adding an option to clear a chat or to select all messages an delete them ---
