That isn't what I meant at all...
What he *does* have the power to do, though, is if someone was able to
sneak in something outrageously bad that caused breakage, he would rip
it out at its roots, and probably make sure that whoever was responsible
for it getting in was either properly chastised (if it was
unintentional), or

that trust would be lost, maybe for good.
And by the way, it is this trust that you speak of that is one of the
main reasons why I'm not worried about this. Linus has good people
around him, and none of them would allow something like it to happen either.
