Default question on student taxi practice

No.

Al CFIAMI

Has anybody ever heard of an instructor turning a pre-solo student loose

in
an airplane alone for taxi practice around an airport without supervision

?
It was basically "go taxi the airplane around the airport and taxiways
but
don't go on the runway and don't take off, I'll come back to check on you

in
30 minutes" Is this a normal thing ?

It wasn't me, and I don't care what the FAA thinks. I'll rephrase my
question. Is it a usual and accepted practice for a CFI to let a 2 hour
time, pre solo student taxi around unsupervised solo ?
