Rails - Sep 2008 - Will acts_as_paranoid work with attachment_fu?

I''ve got a problem in that users are deleting a paranoid model through
the application, including dependents. Some of these dependents are
paranoid too, but not the attachments. (I''m using DB file storage.) I
need to be able to un-delete these things and I''m now wondering if
acts_as_paranoid will work with models that use attachment_fu? If so, in
what model to I add the acts_as_paranoid bit, and do I need to override
the acts_as_attachment model destroy methods?

class Project < ActiveRecord::Base
  has_many   :supporting_documents, :as => :documentable, :dependent =>
:destroy
  has_many   :jobs, :dependent => :destroy
  has_many   :comments, :as => :resource, :order => ''created_at
desc'',
:dependent => :destroy
  has_many   :documents
  acts_as_paranoid
end

class Job < ActiveRecord::Base
  belongs_to :project
  acts_as_paranoid
end

class Comment < ActiveRecord::Base
  acts_as_paranoid
  belongs_to :resource, :polymorphic => true
end

class Document < ActiveRecord::Base
  # we need to upload efax documents, they have no mime type, so we have
to allow application/octet-stream
  has_attachment :content_type => [:image,
''application/pdf'',
''application/msword'', ''text/plain'',
''application/vnd.ms-excel'',
''application/msexcel'',
''application/octet-stream''],
                 :max_size => 5.megabytes

  belongs_to :documentable, :polymorphic => true

  validates_as_attachment
end

class SupportingDocument < Document
end

I poked around and figured this out myself. I had to add the following 
to my document model:

class Document < ActiveRecord::Base
  ...

  acts_as_paranoid

  #do not destory file (usually called from after_destroy)
  def destroy_file
    return
  end
end
