Per request in Discord - this seems to be unanimously supported by us, and given that it'd be a configuration option (I believe it should be disabled by default), I don't see any downsides (apart from potential for abuse, but closure is a highly visible action and can only be done by users with the ability, so it's unlikely to be misused - and even if it will be, can be easily dealt with on a case by case basis).
