Clearly we're not dealing with Nazis or anything like them but there must be some doubt about how the Germans will react and the Franco-German 'alliance' develop if they don't get what they want (and what they may sincerely believe is right for Europe) for whatever reason. They're convinced it's their way or no way after all and the French could well be in for some tougher times as their spending and debt levels come under greater scrutiny....
The extent to which there is or isn't a German 'occupation' or control depend on which and how many strings they wind up pulling doesn't it. After what's gone on in S. Europe, I can't see those who're paying the bill not to want to call all the important shots. If this does ultimately boil down to a cosy Franco-German deal, then I can see there being an awful lot of unhappy people in Italy, Spain, Portugal, etc. when it becomes apparent to them that some in Europe are a lot more equal than others.
