Clear feature references in users' page/template drafts so features can be deleted

Scenario: we have an old chain or feature that we want to delete because we’re no longer using it, so we manually remove it from all of our pages and templates, in all environments (local, dev and prod). We then go to the chain or feature config page, click the “check usage” button and verify that it’s no longer being used in any of our published pages or templates. However, it’s still being used in various people’s “draft” versions. In order to fully delete the feature, we now have to contact each of these people and ask them to click “use stage” in order to clear the lingering references. What happens if one of the people who’s using the feature in their draft version goes on vacation or quits the company? It would be ideal if there was some way for us to forcibly delete their drafts remotely.
