Right now for the host they're the same button as ready, which means that if the host wants to un-ready-up it's impossible. Often times people like to rotate host between each other and out of habit a player (who became the host) might want to unready and then whoops! game started.
The whole start button should be a separate button from ready/unready. This would solve all of those accidental starts.

but if the host has control over when the map starts, then what does it matter if he/she isn't ready. don't start. simple. no reason to un-ready himself...or herself.

The host might still want to indicate to players that he's momentarily unavailable to answer the phone or whatever, and really it becomes a reflex to hit that button and happens without even thinking when you're the host. Even if 99/100 of times you'll stop yourself in time, the 1 time you accidentally force start a match when just meaning to unready is really annoying.

Just replace the ready button with a checkbox.

actually I usually play with that ready unready button often xD
imo the leave match button should turn to unready once the host presses the ready button. Of course this should only work for host.
Making it a checkbox would look bad, since that would mean that non-host players would only see the checkbox and not a button.
