Can we at least get confirmation that her performance working at the Foundation will be appropriately weighted in her favor if we do have another lengthy, expensive, third-party search?
I believe it is always only reasonable to account for someone's intimate understanding of organizational culture, as well as to recognize one's good performance hands on.
However, I think that the process should be wide and open - whoever becomes the permanent ED, should really be the best choice, not just because of the incumbent advantage. The solid and rigorous recruitment process will add credibility and legitimacy to whoever this person eventually is.
