A more useful scenario than the one they describe, to me, would be 
to place the recorder several rows back and activate it from on the 
stage.  

I'd love to have a remote control for my M-Audio Microtrack.  It 
would allow me to place the recorder somewhere that gets good sound 
coverage (we generally play restaurants and small venues), and start 
and stop the recording without having to walk over to the recorder.  
I could even start and stop it between songs, which would make post-
processing easier (no more cutting up hour-long MP3s into individual 
tracks!).
