This wouldn't be implemented on Undernet because it requires you to
filter every PRIVMSG sent to a channel where this mode +c is set. It has
been proposed before, but always turned down. I don't think there's any
chance you'll get this in..

OUTsider I believe wrote such a patch, (together with Math?) that
implements a new +O mode, which does exactly that.
