As Boente hasn't already appointed a special prosecutor, I am not sure it matters whether Boente sticks around til replacement confirmed.https://twitter.com/chrisgeidner/status/840298574009241602 …

Is the concern a temporary absence of a deputy AG? It's my impression that Boente's position is to mark time til Rosenstein.

The concern is they named him in the recusal, and now it appears that (absent some other information) they've asked him to resign.
-
The recusal is careful to mention Boente by name only in context of line of succession, though.
