Yea, but does the ref know for sure that it's a dry-erase? I think it makes sense to at least pay a little quiet attention. Like take the ball out-of-bounds on that side, and say to the coach, "You'll wipe that up, won't you?"
Why?
Perhaps it depends on the relationship you have with game management. A lot of times when I'm working rec ball, my partner and I are the management for that site. I would feel responsible to at least create the possibility that damage won't be done by the marker.
If while working a game you are in fact game management then fine, make sure the coach aint vandalising property. OTOH if you're NOT game management there's no reason to assume that role, IMO. I mean...you aint gonna make sure the restrooms are clean & stocked with tp between games, are ya?

(And FWIW if I'm game management I might take a little more direct approach with the coach, as in "What the **** are you doing??!". )
