This should be possible, but it should be noted that there isn't any actual example of this taking place during the war. Instead:
  • Allies switched sides (Finland declaring war on Germany in 1944).
  • Puppets rebelled and switched sides (Slovakia going over to the Soviets).
  • Allies effectively split in two (Italy in 1943).
  • Puppets were effectively annexed (Vichy France in 1942)
I think that whatever system is in place should address all the above circumstances as well as the possibility of a puppet being set free by its colonial master in a relatively bloodless manner (e.g., Indian independence).

I'd like that option, but it should be player only. One of the most annoying micromanagement """""features""""" of Victoria II is when puppets are automatically released from your control upon reaching great power status.

Are they? I thought it was only when the puppet suffers from a successful rebellion.
