mihael 

you are certainly along the right lines.

A comprehensive list could be quite long....

one thing you can add is looking for files suffixed 0001/0002 etc with a
description like 'Old name FILE in LIB owned by USER ...'

These are files that have been renamed as newer ones have been restored 
over them.

As regards deleting of un-used objects, bets to perhaps move them into
a DELETED library before you actually delete them sometime later ....
