Oh, I do know of this problem. And yes, may zombie Jesus forgive me, I have done it myself. But alas, I have rid myself of the alt-f4 pussy in me, unless it's a teleporting douchebag.
But, the reason I want to reply:
I used to play on a Minecraft server (bear with me) which was mainly focused around trade and PvP. The main problem with PvP there was that people alt-f4'ed almost all the time. We consulted with the server host, and he implemented a thing where if you disconnected in PvP, a Steve bot would "take over your body" with all your gear for a minute I think.
What if Rocket just implemented the same thing, something like... When you log off, your character would stay in the game for like, 5-10 seconds? I mean, it would be safe to log out when out of PvP, because 5-10 seconds is not going to matter when you log off in a safe place, but in PvP, it would grant players the ability to return fire upon someone, and kill them, even if they logged off. I think it's a great idea, I don't know if anyone else has suggested this (probably) but I believe that it would take some of the alt-f4 problems away.

Yes, no?
