I hope they don't remove it. It's vital for aborting PCWs, clan practices etc if someone starts a game with the wrong settings, or someone has serious connection issues.
The scenario you describe does sound pretty sucky, but all you've been denied is some stats and an Elo boost. Like all pro servers you do have to be a little careful which ones you join and make a list of those that are run by those that have self esteem issues.

There are quite a lot of people (including me sadly) who's sens/accel goes haywire after an abort, so (while it would be really handy sometimes) I stay away from that feature as much as possible.
Please report the offenders at support@quakelive.com (with demos)... it's better to report the bad people than to take away a feature.
Yes, please report these players. Abusing the abort function to improve one's stats is against the TOS for Quakelive.
The abort function is nice for when an organized game accidentally launches before all players are ready or if the stream isn't set up or if a player is kicked becuase of a server password problem (this happens a lot if players have ever /seta password or have a /password in their cfg).
