The current llDetachFromAvatar() tool-tip says that an object will DROP from an avatar... but instead, it just goes back into the inventory.
Please create a command that will allow an object to actually DROP from an avatar - this sort of a command will have numerous uses.

You get hit, you drop your munitions for someone else to take. You slip, fall, and drop your coffee. The uses could be limitless, Why don't we have this already? :/

Actually, this is the way it used to work, two years ago. I think they changed it to the current system because they didn't want to have to go through all the process of answering some of those questions.
We used to use it to plant trees in no-build areas and all kinds of stuff like that.

Thanks Catherine, that is very intresting. In such a case, an option would be what Chibi suggested: a function failure + a notice ("cannot rez because the owner chose to not allow this"  . If we use a separate script command for this (llDropFromAvatar), then it will be possible to build failsafes around this command. For example:
llDropFromAvatar();
if(llGetAttached() != 0)
{
llInstantMessage(llGetOwner(),"Could not detach, returning to inventory.");
llDetachFromAvatar();
}

True no error handling but CrystalShard's code would still work.

From: Timeless Prototype and if the parcel is "no build", um, how should it behave? eg. Error: cannot rez object on this parcel {too full|can't build here} "ERROR: No build area, returning object to inventory. I would like to see this too, it could have endless possibilities (an example in my fashion. A gun fighting system, get close enough to the attacker and you can kick the weapon from his hands  )
