How important is temperature control for fermentation after a beer has been fermenting for over a week?

I have a chamber, but it can only hold one fermenter at a time and I want to brew on Saturday. Would it be OK to just put the fermenter at room temp (about 72 degrees) for the last week. I usually like to let mine ferment for at least two weeks and preferably three weeks.

IMO, after the first couple of days of violent fermentation temp control doesnt really matter too much anymore. So you should be fine.
