Yes... this is my idea.
The map maker would put in the .cfg the forbidden modes or the player limits to some modes. So the map rotation and the map vote algorithms would take into account this requirement to allow or not the map/mode to be played/voted.
If the server owner change this, he would be violating the map maker license, and so, his server would be bled in the ms.
But we cannot implement this before we get a consensus inside the devs team. Also, such a thing would not come in a bug fix release, but in a major one.
This delay is necessary (we are trying to learn from our own mistakes).
