Maybe not -- but for every person who says Absolutely Not, there'll be
someone who says Sure.  That's what the one-click collapse would be for --
it's the inverse of the one-click expand that already exists when the
original poster has chosen to cut something.  I'm all in favor of there
being as few people as possible in control of how the original poster's text
is displayed -- your force-cut way has three (the OP, the reader, and the
machine), while the one-click-collapse way has only two.
