After discussions on the feature board, I have come to support Argent Stonecutter's suggestion of the implementation of a "no-outside-push" parcel flag.

This would render llPushObject ineffective unless the script calling it was owned by the land owner.

It must not use the same rules that no-script land uses though, since those are very broken. Currently, no-script land allows outside scripts to continue running if they are attached to an avatar, and they have taken controls from the avatar. This renders the no-outside-script flag useless to rely on as a tool against deliberate attacks.

No-script land also allows scripts to run above a certain height--old thing I used to do in the classic Ahern-Morris WA, fly upwards to activate my scripts.

From here, I encourage you, Gigs, with your passion for this as you posted previously, to get other Residents interested in supporting it as well. Also do forum searches and compile all that relates, I know I've seen it before. I wasn't able to find if Argent already has a corresponding proposition in the Feature Voting Tool, but there are at least a couple requested ones:
