I, too, give a big +1 to this specifically and the concept in general. Admins already have a slight version of this ability in the “prevent this user from sending email” option under the block menu. I must admit that in my more active days with the mop I have found it quite useful to add “without right of correspondence” (dark historical associations notwithstanding) to the block message in the case of some users.
