Exactly! It would be very easy NOT to do this, and just quietly assume that the powers that now rest with (or were taken by) the Bush administration transfer to the next administration.

And, if she is as smart as I think she is, she would quickly follow that up by making sure Congress draws up some new laws that would prevent this sort of power grab from happening again.
