I think most agree with you. Assuming no other action anywhere else, if a runner is just laying there and the knucklehead fielder is just sitting there with the tag in place - kill it.
But when you have a team that is coached to ask for time every time they slide safely even when the fielder's doing nothing - don't kill it.
