At the risk of repeating myself, I'd like to urge that the nine roles I identified acquiring editors as playing in the review process for scholarly monographs cannot readily be duplicated in a system run only by academics. For the enumeration and explanation of these roles, see my essay on "The "Value Added' in Editorial Acquisitions" here: http://www.psupress.org/news/SandyThatchersWritings.html I would be interested if Jean-Claude believes these "functions" to be "quite limited indeed."
