Even though things are how they are, I tend to agree on this matter with Ciaran as well. I am sorry but I am missing the point on why of all this. A full developer cannot be suspended from infra, if that happens, he/she is not a developer any more.
Seriously, I think you are pushing this too far. We are not a company, we are dedicating our free time to bring things up and running. IMHO, this proposal will be counter-productive: it's as if I do something for you for free and you try to rob me in the process. Where is the good-will? Have we stopped trusting each other? If we do not trust each other, sincerely, I don't know what we are doing in here. And calling people who disagree with this terrorists was really a bad comment.
