Yes it is. We think listmasters are only technical staff. In many cases 
list message distribution privilege must be under the exclusive control 
of the list editor. We known Sympa lists with 800.000 subscribers ; do 
you  imagine what append if the listmaster send by error a message to 
such list ?

May be we should define in the list or robot configuration what are 
listmaster privileges. For example, listmaster could or not be allowed 
to review subscribers or archives. Should this part of scenario ? You 
may submit a feature request about this.
