Hmmm...

Inevitably, in my game groups, someone steps to the fore to take charge
after a few sessions.  It isn't always the same person, but it tends to be
the same group of people.  I don't have a problem with the approach as
such, but I'd recommend the "default" structure of the game be to start
with a the "CO" as an NPC, then after a few sessions, move that character
off the chessboard, and promote whoever seems to be doing the best job as
leader.

By the same token, I'd argue *against* having who the leader is be dictated
by character class or an Edge, as in all likelihood, whoever takes this
class/edge won't be the best suited for the job.
