It should show in the file history still. The very first event is "Created" and should have the user name in there.

That's quite odd, it should still show the creator, because it's text data that goes within the file and not a link to actual users. It's as if the file was created by a user named "?"

We keep deleted user to avoid this. Add (deleted) in front of their names in the admin panel.
Correct me if I am wrong, but from my understanding it is the only way to preserve the history.

This particular dialogue looks like a bug. Deleting a user doesn't really delete them, it just flags them as disabled in the DB and thus they no longer show up in user selection lists and a few other places. They still show in the history.
