I don't disagree with this.  You might consider letting them still be a
maintainer though, and just have people who are new maintainers pass 
their changes through a more seasoned member of the community until they
have a few releases under their belt, or whatever criteria the devs think
demonstrates the level of trust necessary to give them commit access to
their ebuilds.
