This should be easy to implement as a script which parses the output of:

$IDL_DIR/bin/lmstat -f idl

and then uses:

$IDL_DIR/bin/lmremove feature user host display

to drop them. Just run the script in a cron job every 10min or so, and
use lmremove to oust all checkouts older than, e.g., 12hrs. Optionally
send an email or message to the user first, warning them they are going to
be disconnected.
