Of course, but oversight from the broadest practical group is still
required. I'm not expecting much in the way of trouble from admins
abusing their capability and in the event that there is some, the
admin concerned can be dealt with in other ways.

What I don't want to see is us making it sufficiently interesting that
people start routinely publishing differences between database dumps
to highlight what is removed, or start routinely capturing and
comparing "hot" pages to look for such things. So much oversight that
it's obviously being looked after is one way to do that.
