I would've thought if anybody had been considered a loose cannon, it would've been Anthony Daniels following his "the storytelling always gets subsumed" remark. That couldn't have won him any points with LFL.

I think Daniels is very close to LFL, without it he wouldn't be anything. He's been C-3PO in all things, cartoons, ads, Star Tours and all kinds of advertising things. And without him there really isn't 3PO at all so it's not like LFL has a choice. He's the only one in all the movies, too.

Yeah, it'd be harder for LFL to snub Daniels than Prowse. At the very least, they would've had to find someone who could do a convincing C-3PO voice imitation. Anyway, it is strange that some actors get a free pass from LFL when people like Prowse don't.

Harrison, Carrie and Mark have all made subtle - and not so subtle - jabs at Lucas over the years, but LFL knows it would be impossible and laughable to somehow retaliate against them. Harrison, in particular, can definitely get away with saying stuff like how Han Solo was an idiotic character and that ROTJ sucked and was basically made to sell toys, etc. Harrison can get away that, but someone like Gary Kurtz can't.
