DBA Responsibilities... who owns the database?

Okay... so we are going around and around... I came from the Applications world and still do some development to support the DBA's using Oracle*Forms. But recently the Apps Director insisted that his Developers play/be the DBA's in an Oracle instance that we have setup for them (for testing).

They seem to think it is okay to have the SYSTEM/SYS account password(s) and that they should be adding datafiles!

So what is the general feeling out there? Your comments would be appreciated!

Should the Apps Developers stay out of the SYSTEM / SYS accounts? I/we don't have a problem with the Developers creating tables/synonyms/etc... but to control the whole instance? Hmmmm!!!
