I assumed that's what we were talking about all along. The original poster
asked about the decision of whether to include naturals canceling the
outgoing key signature when making a key change. Surely that falls under
the category of copy editing. Composers expect their publishers and editors
to address this sort of thing, and on the rare occasions that they express
a preference, the publisher will honor it.

It was only with your post that this turned into a debate about publishers
trying to suppress non-standard notation, which as far as I can tell nobody
is defending.  I wonder if this whole discussion is a non-debate based on a
semantic misunderstanding.
