designers are hired all the time to design a site, or ad, or whatever, and then the client invariably picks the most boring design, or edits it away, etc. the designer often shows their own favorite design iteration in their portfolio, as opposed to the design that was ultimately used by the client.
and in my experience the designer is never interested in the maintenance part as that is not nearly as interesting as the designing.
legally, i don't think the designer has any right to the work, they were hired as a consultant, to do "work for hire." i agree with jim, this sort of language should be in the contract up front.
