I've been thinking about the same issue for the same reason. I've got a Skywatcher so the Alt is not much of an issue but it's amazing how many people seem to give the scope a little shove away from themselves as they step away as well as those who push their eye against the eyepiece hard enough to push the scope off target. I've been trying to think of a drag system for the az which does not become something to catch on in the dark (or when transporting the mount).
