There may well be pressure from the fans to confirm Kenny permanently if he does as well as I expect he will, but I wouldn't then be surprised to see Kenny himself rule the idea out. You appoint a caretaker to do well between one permanent manager leaving and another arriving. Otherwise you appoint him permanently from the start. I for one wouldn't have wanted that for the King and I really don't think he would either.

I see your point Jules, but I'm think in the mentioned scenario, if Kenny does end up ruling himself out, it'll be one with reluctance, more of giving in to the owner's wishes, not wanted to make things difficult for the new/incoming man etc. - something similar to how he took and handled the disappointment of being rejected in the summer. As for caretaker, again, I agree with your point but if the appointment is meant to buy time for the owners to source for replacement, then everyone should have a fair chance to be taken into consideration, more so if he proves himself capable. I am open to the possibility of Kenny staying on permanently.
Alas, I can't see it happening. The definition of doing well can be vague and different among people.

Let's agree to differ then, count. We'll never know for sure, but I believe the reports I saw last summer that Kenny's suggestion that he be given the job was specifically on a caretaker basis.
