Quick-sabotage addons for toolbox

Since there are quick-heal addons and a quick-repair addon (at least there used to be) I think it would be cool to have 1 or 2 addons for the toolbox that can very quickly/instantly destroy a hook. Maybe requiring a skill check as well. This would allow someone to quickly try to save someone from being hooked at the expense of reduced charges and losing the box, much like the instant heals.

(Rare) Sulfuric Acid: While sabotaging a hook or trap, press the secondary action button to instantly complete the sabotage. This will consume the toolbox. Reduces toolbox charges by 50%.

(Ultra Rare) Substance N: This chemical is so dangerous that its use requires extreme skill and caution. Upon beginning sabotage of a hook or trap, you will be faced with a moderately difficult skill check. If you succeed the skill check, the sabotage will be completed. If you fail the skill check, you will take damage (healthy to injured; injured to dying). In any case, 25% of the toolbox's charges will be consumed upon use. The toolbox can't be used for repair as containing the substance makes it harmful to mechanical parts. The addon and toolbox are not consumed on use, however if it is used at least once it becomes unstable and cannot be kept at the end of the trial even if you escape.

So basically it can instantly destroy a hook or trap if you hit the skill check but will injure you if you miss it and you can use it 4 times. You can't use it for repair. Using it even once means you can't keep it otherwise people could just use it 3 times and survive and keep using it.

Everything is up for discussion/debate of course and nothing is set in stone. Feel free to throw in your own ideas or whatever.

(also I apologize if someone already suggested something like this. I don't intend to steal any ideas or anything)
