Well in a way it is interrupt able, the person is left completely open and any foe can attack them if they choose to do so. Another way to interrupt the person whos' going to nuke himself, is to kill them.
As for your big skull and bones that could be something nice to have... or just a nuclear sign on it will do.

Yeah I agree, a big skull and crossbones would be handy 
Oh... And according to Back Alley Brawler the self destruct is not interruptable... at all!

You click on the self-destruct button. The power immediately fires off, checks for to-hit against everything around you (standard target limit rant applies) and then holds the actual damage for 10 seconds. You're already dead at this point and everything around you has already been hit (they just doesn't know it).
Animation and FX start playing. Bzzt Bzzt PSHHHH Bzzt, etc. Countdown numbers start showing up. 9...8...7...6
At this point, the animation and FX are not interruptible by any other animations in game. You can technically be attacked, take damage, be held, knockedown, even have your hit point bar depleted (ie, killed), but you won't play a death/hold/knockdown/etc animation and the self-damage to yourself as well as the damage to everything around has already been calculated when you pushed the big red button. It's just waiting for the timer to elapse before applying.

i dunno if this is already done on it but maybe an "are you sure" warning, so you can ether say yes or no before you kill your self for no reason.

Not exactly good when you need to use it fast in an actual fight. :\

In case no one's noticed, they are changing the icon shortly. Currently the icon is for a ranged weapon, single target power, and Self-destruct isn't either of those.
Don't think it's getting a skull and cross-bones, however.

I will admit if you aren't paying attention you can get it mixed up with the rest icon because they both look like grey blobs in the corner of your eye.
I will admit I have rest on crtl+0 and self destruct on 0 but thats not the point! I still didn't mean to blow myself up when I meant to rest

what about being able to self disturb the skill, so when you move, it stops.
Probably desirable, but currently it's tecnically impossible. The way it's animated, you're dead as soon as you press the button, you just don't know it yet. You go through an animation which can't be stopped, and then the damage hits.
And I think it was done that way to avoid some of the bugs it had when first produced, so I don't think they'll make it interruptable.

It's not supposed to be interruptible: you're making the ultimate self-sacrifice (ok, so, admittedly you can do it more than once... but hey, that's how it goes). Once you've committed yourself to it, it's done.
The icon thing though, I can see the need for it.

I'd like to see the self destruct power either be interruptible or have a more obvious icon in the power tray, it looks pretty innocuous but once clicked you're dead. Needs a big red skull and crossbones so those of us who forgot where we put it don't keep comitting suicide
