When you die, there is really no need for the crosshair anymore, as you cannot shoot, or do anything for that matter.
May not be that big a deal in most cases, but I am working on a mod that displays the words "GAME OVER" in the center of the screen when you are killed, and having the crosshair inbetween the two words is somewhat annoying.
Preferably this would be default, but obviously could be turned off by the user so the crosshair is still on.

Re: Option to turn off crosshair when dead
If it gets added, would an option to disable the disappearing crosshair actually be needed?

Not really, but just in case. (I only said that to increase the chance of this being accepted)

Maybe some kind of option of forcing the crosshair on or off at will?
Then it can be applied to scripts-

Re: Option to turn off crosshair when dead
You could also [wiki=A_SetCrosshair]set the crosshair[/wiki] to a null graphic in the weapon's Deselect state (which is entered when they die). Not the most graceful "solution", but...
