Franz Kafka famously asked his friend Max Brod to burn all his unpublished manuscripts after Kafka's death. Brod did not honor this request, which is why we can now read "The Trial" and "The Castle".

So yeah. Preserving someone's work against their wishes is probably a faux pas - thankfully, someone else committed it, and you, me, and humanity at large can just enjoy the results.
