What you are saying may be true for a test/sandbox server you plan to have up at all times and to which few players connect, or very irregularly, and if you use your machine for something else (development for example). I agree it could be useful for mine.
For a typical "production" server the machine is dedicated. There is no point to keep spare RAM on the machine (because shut off zones must consume very little CPU).
If you implement this, it would be a good idea to allow switching it on/off through some setting (variable, rule, environment variable etc), so that the original behavior is available. That way it's more options, so more power to us.
