Audit of deletes

Is there any way to audit the deletion of a child record?  We are using custom objects and need to track when an appointment was deleted from a schedule.  We could write triggers to handle this for us, but I was hoping for a more built-in approach.  Recycle bin is somewhat close to what we need, but we need the information permanently.

Possible approach, lot of work though.

(1) Add tombstone field to child object, Deleted:DateTime

(2) Override the delete button to set the Deleted field to now

(3) Have filters ignore  records in roll-up summaries, reports, and ...  I don't know if you can filter them in the related list section on the master.
