If the rebels army has 1000+ regular units (perhaps one of those that can be recruited?) in it, nothing short of having major army or SC in the province would help, so it wouldn't cause any noticeable extra management.
But then the person who gets the new territory has a huge army, and would either a) go on a rampage and take tons of provinces, which would be kinda cool, but overpowering, or b) have a bunch of crappy troop (like militia event but x20) and have to suicide them, which is a pain. (unless dom3 has a disband command)
My assumption is that rebels will just resume their normal occupation (like farming, etc) after rebellion succeeds. So the province will become empty of military.

That would be ok I guess, though maybe a small % could stay behind, giving a few units to defend the province with. Alternativly, they could joing the PD.

Alexti was right, the point isn't to create "free armies", the point is simply to flip the province to new control.

@alexti
True, it would really make people think twice about steamrolling into someone's territory who has a stronger dominion. Don't forget, however, that taking territory means bringing down temples and putting up your own.

Anyway, I'm starting to think this idea has gone beyond modability. How about tying it to the Fortune scale, rather than the order scale, in the form of a new random event? It doesn't work as well in the roleplay sense, but in the game balance sense, it might be more feasible. Simply create a negative random event that only occurs in provinces with enemy dominion. I don't know anything about modding, but I'll assume for now it's not possible to make this army the same allegiance as the enemy dominion, or scale the size of the army to the dominion strength. Anyway, it's a start. Maybe someone can step in here and explain a little bit about modding random events.
