I am missing an option to deactivate and activate my forum.

Reason/Use-Case:
I want to run shell scripts via cron for backups:
At the beginning of a mysqldump I want to deactivate the forum and afterwards I will reactivate it.
So I get in case of a necessary restore of the database a clean forum-database with a deactivated forum and the users of my forum didn't get an error message during the backup caused by the load of the mysqldump.
