I regulate absent characters to the background and they help fight, but I just never liked the concept of them disappearing. A buddy of mine told a story about a DM that had a detailed excuse made up where characters were summoned to other planes or swallowed by a red mist. Eventually he got so fed up that when an important character disappeared he went "Guys. We have plane shift and high level divination. We have to find this dude!"
Not the best way to handle the situation through derailment but he got the DM to accept that characters should remain in game in the background and fight when necessary (I don't like the silent robot Mark the Red).
