[Suggestion] VPN Killswitch

Hello, I have a suggestion for the Softether VPN client. A killswitch would be a great addition to the VPN client. Basically, if your connection was suddenly dropped or disconnected, this would temporarily disable your internet connection until you either A: Exit SoftEther, or B: Connect to another server. This would greatly increase security, as those few moments that the connection is dropped, or you go AFK for a while to take care of something and the connection gets disconnected, your IP is exposed. Please take this into consideration. Thanks.

Most VPN providers have this feature, but I really like SoftEther, so it'd be great to see this implemented.

Actually this can be done by modifying the routing table, but I hope SoftEther VPN client can do it for us. Actually, it is just a client side problem.

Delete 0.0.0.0/0 routed through your own gateway when using VPN.
