Lets say you loose your "phone" and you have data stored on it that you dont want anyone to see:
A function to wipe the entire phone for such data. ( of course its one selfs own responsibility to have proper backup somewhere else.)

the wipe function should remove any connection to exchange/imap/pop accounts, delete entire phonebook (I have my phonebook synced with exchange, so its a POC to get all the contacts back) remove conversation history etc.
there is a similar function already in the exchange server. I have never tried it so I dont know if itīs doing it properly.
take in mind that it wouldn't be a good idea to combine it with the change of simcard, as for example a friend has to use his sim in your phone (for what ever reason).. it would erase all data, but it hasn't been stolen

it is a nice idea though to trigger that via sms, but you'd have to be sure that the thief still has your simcard in the phone, otherwise it won't work
