I haven't read any response to this, but yes I think it's a useful functionality, if we're going to have commands permitted from unconnected users.  I have, many times, disconnected to stop commands from running, sometimes to clean out my command queue so I can try and start again less lagged.  If those commands are going to go anyway, I'd like a way to stop them.
