A few ideas crossed my mind:

* Grant !enablevote to a specific level, disable it for them once admins come online.
Cons: have to check for admins and regulars, which differs for every server; it would need introduction of several CVARs; !cancelvote is also bound to the same flag as !enablevote.

* Allow !enablevote to be used without shrubbot
Cons: need a set of special constraints in commands.lua; less consistency

* Use the existing nextmap vote timeout (g_voteNextMapTimeout) and disable nextmap voting altogether when admins come online
Cons: I could not think of any to be honest.

Since I like backward compatibility - who doesn't - and consistency makes for an easy-to-use module I quite quickly rejected option 1 and 2. Though I would like to hear some opinions on the latter idea.
