In my opinion, that'll just lead to people daisy chaining surge protectors from the outlets that do work making a fire hazard/overload.

That is exactly what will happen. We are troubleshooters. That's how we got this far. We see a problem, we find a solution. Sometimes the solution is brilliant, sometimes it's "hold my beer." Regardless, we'll come up with something. There's no way I'd put up with my stuff getting turned off in my office without me doing it intentionally. The only smart use of that kind of thing that I've seen is my UPS, which will turn off all of the other attached devices when the main device's load drops to almost zero.
