I don't like the idea of developers being "granted" special status. We
need a new development model, granted, but I don't like developers being
singled out as guinea pigs, as a form of punishment even

Yes but you don't need to remove his trunk privileges for that. Surely
Magnus is a decent human being who can be reasoned with, and who could
agree to that on his own free will. To me, this sets a bad precedent and
raises an issue of trust
