I myself, due to computer crash, didn't have the chance to put my account on vacation, and there are various other ways that a player may have to be gone or just not able to log on where vacation is an unattainable luxury.
To combat this, I suggest an Automatic Vacation function, which can be activated by the player, I suggest a GM approved roster to prevent abuse or just everybody activating it and defeating the purpose of vacation mode not being automatic right now for everyone.
Once on such a list, if a player doesn't log in for some amount of time (perhaps one or two weeks) their account is automatically placed in vacation until they return, simple in function, though I imagine it'd take a fair amount of programming.
I believe such a thing would help keep real life from killing off our charries
