I agree I have been in situations (canyoning) many times where I have been very nervous about loose rocks at the top of a long abseil. Even a small stone at speed can do a lot of damage. In this situation you have to be wary of moving the rope around too much whilst descending and those waiting should stay well back from the edge to avoid dislodging anything while moving about.
