Azure AD Smart Lockout unlock capability for admins

I'm blown away by the lack of options once your account gets locked out by the Azure AD Smart Lockout feature. Not having the ability to monitor the account lockout duration or have the option to unlock an account using this feature is insane.

    Agreed. This leaves you vulnerable to Denial of Service attacks with no good way to recover.

    I agree 100%. To not be able to unlock a user account as a Global Administrator is unacceptable. Standard users expect us to be able to take care of something like this immediately. I had a user locked out of Skype Online when he needed to be on a Skype Online call with a client presenting a proposal on-screen. This need to be fixed with an unlock option for admins!
