I've already overloaded signin for a few other reasons, but the solution you suggest would would only be part of the solution, because if I disable a user I would have to remove all of the user's permissions also. Otherwise, the user could manually navigate to a page to which he/she had access. If the user has a remember cookie to bypass signin they could also avoid the disabled status.
Ideally I'd rather not have to remove all the ACL permissions because this creates an additional maintenance tasks, for example if I were to later re-enable the user. It would be much more user friendly if I could simply disable at which point ACL permissions would be ignored, but the user would get sent to a page explaining the user has been disabled. To be comprehensive, this needs to hook into whenever permissions are checked, almost an "allow_disabled_access" in the security.yml, so public pages would be visible by the user but secure pages would not.
