I really like this idea. It still gives antags agency but adds an extra step that will force antags to get a bit more creative than just brushing against a HoS to immediately have access to the armory and allest-of-all access.

I have seen people scream at HoSes in OOC for ages because of actions done when mindslaved, and a mindslaved HoS can set an extremely bad example for brand new security!
The latter part of that rings true - definitely part of the reason I genuinely hate being mindslaved as HoS. You get into some funny/amusing RP scenarios, but it can do some serious harm to trust, as an example to others, etc.
