[IRCServices] Feature Requests (CS: FREEZE and an INFO field)

I apologize if this has been brought up before; I did a search on
'suspend', 'freeze'(these turned up promising, but I didn't see any
yes/no/maybe/RTFM/STFU/etc), and anything else I could think of.  

Currently, ChanServ has two 'punishment' settings: Suspend and Forbid.
I would like to suggest a 'freeze' option.  Features follow:

- It would have an optional time(IE: /chanserv freeze #chan <expiry>
<reason>)
- It would make the channel effectively unregistered in regard to the
access list(except akicks); mlocks, topics would remain


Also, another suggestion.  Establish an Info field, perhaps 255 chars,
visible only to opers(plain +o clients) that Services admins(opers?)
can put in a description of problems with the channel.  Example:

- /chanserv set #chan operinfo Do *not* getpass/sendpass this channel
without talking to me first!
would result in:

(08:32:59 am) -ChanServ- Information for channel #chan:
(08:32:59 am) -ChanServ- OperInfo: Do *not* getpass/sendpass this
channel without talking to me first! (derfy, 08/12/2002 0830 -0600<too
much?>)
..etc..

Just some thoughts.
Very nice job on services.
