Great tips, thanks. I recall reading about ADMINISABSENTMINDED many years ago.

How about the ability to load a different policy? In other words, I
could set up a cron script to run at some point in the near future
that loads a different policy if I can't manually disable that cron
script before it actually executes because I've been locked out.

Even something that changes the policy to default-allow from my IP
would probably be enough.
