Feature Request: Disable remote "Set Ready"

My hope is to use PrusaConnect for managing a large fleet of Prusa printers at my small engineering college. Our machines are used by almost every student on campus, so we think a lot about how to mitigate risk of failure and make things easier on our small team that takes care of the space.

We would like to adopt PrusaConnect as a better way to keep track of usage by person and manage our printers. However, we find it very important to our system to ensure that students must physically clear the bed and remain near the printer while waiting for their first layer. The "Set Ready" functionality in PrusaConnect would allow students to start their prints without physically checking the printer, which would be a significant issue for us.

My feature request is the ability to disable the "Set Ready" functionality for certain "User Teams" in the PrusaConnect interface. Then, users would be able to upload their files into the printer's queue, we would be able to track usage based on their individual accounts, and they would still need to press a button on the printer itself to start the print after verifying the printer is clear and ready.

I'm curious if any others have similar use-cases and would love to see this implemented in the near future.
