would depend on what he is trying to fix, and how much you trust, and what ‘data’ you site holds that could be embarrassing. If you hold no client info other than say usernames, then you could take a more relaxed attitude.
I tend to work on test/dev sites rather than live sites, and I like to have both cpanel and ftp access to sites I am working on, but most of what I do is code, and the ability to back out stuff is key.
