I think Chairs have the tools they need to handle this situation. Plus with the one-click publish tool, an editor can't hold the chair hostage by saying "the publication process is so complex, it will take you forever to find a replacement if you fire me" :-) I don't think these two answers quite address the concern, sorry: the concern is to see a given WG allow one editor a permanent right to publish his Editor's Draft as a WD. That's a de facto 'living WD' and the WG is not in charge of the publication any more. All of that is technically possible and I think it _will_ happen in the future if that posssibility is open. Sorry, but I am very, very far from excited by the potential side-effect of that tool... </Daniel>
