This falls in the grey area between bug/feature request, however, I don't think players should be penalized with having "abandoned" a game if the host abandons the game (thus shutting down the entire game). After all, I was more than willing to play the whole thing until the host shut it down, so why should I (and my fellow players) be penalized for the host abandoning the game?
The results of this are mostly noticed with 1.2 being broken, so there are new players with 100% abandoned game statistics out there
