Sorry for the stream of emails but it's late and I'm going into stream of 
consciousness mode.

A major power can only have its leader control a minor's forces against a 
nation with which it is not at war if those leaders are not a part of the 
major powers forces.  So if Davout has ceased to be French he can command 
the Swedes against the Prussians.
