Accidentally turning off the wing tank valve leaves you with a dropping

emergency.

I just leave mine unwired.  It could turn out to be too tough when
one needs it opened.  I do check it Every Preflight.  And tell the 
passenger what's happening.  As for the "fiddler,"  tell `em they have
to walk home from altitude.
