Do we still need the Emergency publisher role

[andybroomfield]

This oringially existed as it wasn't considered desirable to allow all those who are editors to also publish alert banners.
But then alert banners got used for things like annoucements, so who needed to publish them got expanded.
I know that councils have either:

• Granted all senior comms officers with editor role the emergency publisher role
• Granted the editor role permission to edit all alert banners

Which raises the question, is this role needed?
(It would mean if we removed it, any installations outside of Localgov Drupal would not get a role with edit permissions by default).

Edit: Scrubbed BHCC as there are some technical editors that don't have the emergency publisher role.

We do not use this role at Essex. We give alert banner permissions to Editors and News editors.
