I've always thought that to be nonsense. All three of the late Doctors were huge fans of the show and none of them would have a problem with another actor taking on the role. It wasn't disrespectful for Karl Urban to take on the role of McCoy in Star Trek, it's just a character. The first, second and third Doctors are characters and I'm sure all three actors would want those characters to continue.
No, the characters were the actors and vice-versa. Doctor Who is not like any other acting job in that respect. And Incidentally, I refused to watch the last Star Trek film-if it ain't Shatner, it ain't Kirk.

I'll go one step further... if it ain't Shatner, it ain't Star Trek!

McGann has been shown in the new series as an incarnation of the Doctor, that's good enough for me.

Your loss.
