This is a decent idea, but Cal's concern is a valid one. I do like the idea of opening up more slots for clowns. That's a funny gimmick. but i think there needs to be some hard limitations to avoid encouraging griefing. Perhaps roles like the heads and security are off-limits and can't be changed in this way. (I think this would actually make sense, given Sec and the other head roles are far beyond the jurisdiction of the HoP.) Additionally, you wouldn't be able to reduce the amount of open slots past the amount of crew currently in that role, or the default for the given map.
Hell, I think it's a little less "problematic" overall to just give the HoP the ability to increase the amount of role slots for non-head/sec roles rather than an ability to decrease. We've already got the automatic free-up of non-head roles when someone ghosts in cryo, so regardless of the intention, I don't really think that kind of busywork would actually come into play often.
