What happens to a steam account when someone dies? Its not like Steam does a lookup against a deaths register.

If the password is handed on, is the account auto deleted after 120 years?

If someone dies at 20 does the account live on for another 100 years?

I get the legality aspect, but how is this handled in practice?
