I think if its an extended absence and no voicemail is desired means the
user can setup an auto attendant or forward their calls to another user,
etc. IMO letting a user control their voicemail as on/off will simply lend
to call failures to the caller.

I.e. - as an enhancement please also think about admin defineable group or
user settings that will provide a fallback destination when allowing the
user to disable their own voicemail. Failure to address this will simply
lend to a lot of frustrated callers (caller go to leave voicemail for user
1234 who has their voicemail disabled. Gets a goodbye message from system),
instead of the already available extended leave greeting that is in place
to address this, plus a user auto attendant ("I'm on extended leave until
January. Please press "1" to speak to john doe who is covering for me...").

I perhaps do not understand your use case. I think the system covers it
already.
