I can think of one use case for de-verifying: when someone's account seems to have been hacked.

Ok, but when you lose your drivers’ license (or your “friend” “borrows” it) you don’t get your license suspended...

Your case would imply there is a confirmation interval... which I don’t think is the case.

Your passport is "unverified" when you report it stolen.
