In practice, it's not "complete ownership", but it's also not "just check in authority" - it's gotten quite a bit more complicated as Mozilla has scaled the "ownership" of products extended beyond the people actually managing the code. As Laura notes, though, this seems like a broader disagreement about what our modules should represent exactly. Which is fine to discuss on its own merits, but I don't think it's fair to suggest that resolving that disagreement is a prerequisite for adding these webdev modules.
