Jail: Break Blocks Option

Feature description
So, I'm a moderator on a server which has around 20-25 players online all the time. Recently we have problems with players stealing and such. Banning them wouldn't be fair, as they played a lot on the server and also payed in real life money. Everyone can get another chance! Our system would be to jail them and let them chop trees until we think they're OK to come back playing. Theres a /jail system in essentialsX, which is really helpfull, BUT players can not destroy blocks if they're in prison. My suggestion is: Add an option in the config.yml file, to turn on block breaking on and off while in jail. We'd protect the area with another plugin.
How the feature is useful
This would be usefull in a number of different jail designs, for example if an owner decidedes he wants people to dig an area or such.
Thanks for opening a feature request!
Out of interest, would bypass permissions work? For example, something like essentials.jail.allow-break. This could be more useful for servers that may want different users to have different abilities to break blocks. In contrast, config options would still let you turn this on or off, but aren't configurable per-player or per-group.
In addition, EssentialsX's jails feature is very simple, and I feel your use case may be better suited to a dedicated jail plugin, especially as I don't think most servers will need this. I'd be happy to hear from anyone else to the contrary, however.
