Currently if you give somebody rights to reverse a Posted G/L Batch it is for any batch. If you reverse a batch from a subledger you very easily bugger up the reconciliation of the sub ledger to the G/L as the G/L Entries get reversed and nothing happens in the subledger. If you have a reversal or correction to be make you need to do it in the subledger which feeds the G/L.
Can we have the following options.
A) Block reversing a subledger batch altogether
B) Put a setup option with None / Warning / Error
C) If reversing a subledger batch put a warning message in there telling them of the risks / and alternative solution (i.e. correct the issue in the subledger)

I suggest that reversing a subledger batch should be treated as a GL transaction, and be prevented by the control account settings,
