Simple solution: Danny should not perform ANY admin action on EITHER account OTHER than WP:OFFICE actions. Harsh, but if that's what is necessary to prevent another shitstorm like this then that is what needs to happen. A 'long standing and widely respected editor' (Jimbo's words, not mine) is expected to show MORE respect for the community, not less. Otherwise Citizendium will gain more contributors than it deserves.
A solution with a major pitfall. Danny handles a lot of work that needs doing - dealing with complaints, mainly, and tidying up related problems, many of which require admin rights. We've only just surmounted a several-month backlog of these issues thanks to remarkable volunteer effort*; we don't have the available manpower to take the only person paid to do it consistently away.
