It seems funny to me, but I think the solution to the exemplar problem might be to leave you exemplared through a logout like sk's were before. Maybe make this a special case for task forces, but it wouldn't hurt in general. You always have the unsk button in a team, and on a TF you should still get kicked if you unsk. This seems like a simple solution to me. It would allow an exemplar to continue the TF through connection problems. You would still have an issue if your buddy actually left the TF, but that's another story. An RSK timer would fix this, but just seems like more trouble than it would be worth.
Just my 15M inf.
