No, there is no way to do that to my knowledge, ignore makes your
client not print the line. it will still receive it from the server.
some servers may have a server side ignore, such as SILENCE on
inspIRCd, but this just makes the server not send *you* the line,
everyone else gets the line from the user you have ignored or
silenced, and they will always get your messages unless they have
ignored you in some way

Thats a neat idea for a SILENCE flag though.

It is, perhaps a config too, and a config for oper exempt, as hiding
what you're saying from an oper could end badly, eg breaking a network
rule or a law

No problem :)
