Deleting isn't really fully possible I think, notes are cached in many relays and clients and it wouldn't be possible to notify all of them to instantly delete it and actually have a 100% delete success. I think the best option we have is to add in client warnings about content you might not want to post like Nsecs or Bitcoin keys, I too have this worry too, I always go over notes many times which contain images or copied test to make sure I don't accidentally post something sensitive. You could add an option to enable a double confirmation or something to post, like it shows a preview of the note and then you have to confirm again, this wouldn't help a lot but might a little.
