Feature Request: Terminate a "Now Playing" activity from server

I would like to see the ability, as the owner of the server, to "stop" content currently being viewed.

 

I have a friend who has kids that are notorious for pausing a movie the entire day - this shows as activity on my Plex server. I don't want there to be an open connection for 10-15 hours at a time and would like the ability to terminate that connection if I feel it appropriate.

There are a few requests for this already.  So we don't get votes scattered across several posts, I suggest you find one and point this thread to it.  You vote by adding a "Like" to the first post in the thread.

As this is a very basic control it was shocking that this wasn't already included in Plex. 

Here is a post MikeG6.5 started himself.  It appears to be the most popular so I will link you to there.

Early 2021 clean-up: implemented (now playing -> hover -> cancel; Plex Dash)
