O.P. Would you use this plugin?
I am in the process of developing a plugin but for certain reasons beyond my control it has been placed on hold.

The plugin will allow you to Locally shutdown your computer by the use of /xsd

Now here is the other part of the plugin. A Password Protected Remote Computer shutdown.

What this means is if you enter the password for your contact you can remotly shutdown their computer. Now for moral reasons I have to decide how I would want to do this. If a Contact shuts down your computer does it disable this feature before your computer shuts off or what because if a contact knows your password they could keep shutting down your computer.

If i finish developing the plugin there will be a few commands to control the plugin.

/xsddisable - disable remote shutdown
/xsddenable - enable remote shutdown
/xsdpass <password> - change password
/xsdconfig - open preferences.

Now the remote shutdown feature was proposed to me in this way. Your at work and you forgot to turn off your computer if there is a remote shutdown then you can shut off your computer.

So the Poll would you use it... Yes or No?

Post your thoughts on this as well feel free I would love everyones Input.

Also please dont steal the idea and code one yourself come up with your own ideas for original plugins. Thanks Matty
