Well, you probably don't NEED a rule, but I think it would be nice to have the option. Some people might not want corpses to be poofing while the mob is still doing the death animation. I wouldn't mind having corpses not get made at all if it they are empty. But, I also wouldn't mind the option to set it to 5 or 10 seconds so that they at least see a corpse for a few seconds.

Rules aren't really all that hard to add, and I think they only further customize-ability of servers. Though, I think it might be a good idea to have a "Notes" column added to the Rule_Values table. It would be only for reference when setting the rule, and would be a brief description of what the rule does and how to set it. There are already descriptions for most rules directly in the ruletypes.h file, so maybe those could be pulled and put in the notes column.
