Suicide grenade explosion

[Very Ape 748]

The title is pretty self-explanatory, and there isn't much to this suggestion, although I think it could contribute to tense moments.

Survivors should have the option to cook off their grenades, killing themselves if they so choose. I think this goes beyond just a novelty, or a way to troll other players, but would actually be something that could contribute to some very tense and exciting moments. Bandits would have to properly search their hostages, and captured or otherwise cornered survivors in possession of a hand grenade would have to make a difficult choice.

And before anyone says that this will only lead to plenty of trolls making themselves explode around other survivors;

1) Hand grenades aren't that easy to acquire, especially on the coast. I don't see why someone would waste so much time getting a grenade, only to kill himself and lose all his gear. Granted, some people will troll, but it won't be frequent at all due to the simple fact that grenades are hard to find, and thus expensive in time.

2) If someone gets that close to you unnoticed with the intention of killing you, you deserve to die. That player could have as easily killed you from afar, guns being more easily-acquired than grenades.

I'd like to be able to put a cooked grenade in a Snipers suit to be honest.

Can already be done, the character doesnt take the grenade in his hand until you decide to throw it. Just toss it to the ground nearby and run.
