I never heard of anyone actually using this "feature" though. I believe it is a Brady invention.
That's not a "safety." It is indeed a result of pestering from the Brady Bunch and is more accurately referred to as a integral gun lock. It renders the gun inoperable without a key. Many manufacturers have begun to integrate these devices into their design or offer them as an option. I'd rather keep the gun in a locking container that is accessible without keys.
