Yes but this is not so bad becouse then the user will have an indication 
that something is wrong with the configuration.

I can understand that if you want to get rid of bad configured users 
becouse the server is on to much load.

They have a phone but it is wrong configured like if I set my phone to
German then I can't use it wery well, but the operator in not blocking 
me becous of that ;)

It's just that I am not so sure this is nice thing to do to users that 
want to try to get GM working that is one problem the other was the
amount of testing I get when ppl call that includes a lot of users with 
bad configuration. I have helped quite a lot of users to get it right :)


Perhaps there is a solution that all are happy with.
