the weather is below 800/2, in which case only IFR departures
will be of concern

People may be taxiing around the airport with no intention of taking
off, for example, to fuel up, to do maintanance, or to more the aircraft.

I suppose such an aircraft could call departure first, to ensure that
such operation will not interfere with anybody on approach.

I still would like someone to explain how this does not reinforce the
original poster's question.. Suppose someone just needs to taxi around near
the approach end of the rwy. they can, yes? nobody to stop them?
