Is it safe to delete BAGS?

Is it safe to delete, on Vista 32-bit,

HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Classes\Local
Settings\Software\Microsoft\Windows\Shell\Bags

and

HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Classes\Local
Settings\Software\Microsoft\Windows\Shell\BagMRU

Will they be rebuilt as needed?

It may not be safe to delete BAGS, but don't marry one !!!!

They should be rebuilt as needed, but you could certainly export the
registry keys first - or rename them instead of deleting them - in order to
be able to restore the old versions if you deem it necessary.
