Yeah - personally I don't mind it this way. To me, "Deleted by creator" is simply something more along the lines of, "I'd like to retract my previous statement".
Sometimes I get curious and reply to a deleted comment to see what they said, but generally I let it slide.
I can only look at that and dream of having such incredible levels of pettiness.
The problem with that is that comments that are removed by moderators behave the same way - that might actually cause legal problems if someone posts something that you're obligated to remove instead of just hiding it
