Such a feature will be nice for public league. As for private passworded league, it is the creator fault if he/she invited an automover. Therefore no replacement should be allowed.
Another idea is setting player's requirements for joining. For example if you want to play an unbalanced scenario with some veterans; you can set the requirements to 100+ win players.

dcr66,
I see your point with the 100+ wins but I'm not sure that is good either. This would preclude a whole host of players that don't play often but are veterans of the game. Many players here have more ftf board experiences than CTR to CTR keyboard time. I for one have only a few hundred games and only 20 wins, not too impressive I know, but I have been in the top 3 in most of my games this year. Now maybe you are looking for the top players for the type of game you mentioned but I think that is what Challenge or Password games are for.
The problem here is the quantity of [automovers] not the quality of players. Maybe there should be a new stat added to a players page, numbers of [automove]'s they have. Then you could request that only players who have never [automoved] be included. Sort of like a bad credit rating. Maybe even give a scarlet letter in front of the offenders alias similar to the one used for donations, but ugly.
Could a trigger of some sort be added to subscribing to a game that those who have a certain number of [automoves] need permission from the creature to join a game? Nick could help with this question.
