The problem then though is we need to have a solidly trusted and technical person review it to make sure it's clean of such items. Frankly, I'm not sure that can be 100% done while retaining the functionality. I know there are Android & Debian versions out there, but last I knew they also lack drivers for some of the harder bits, like GPS, GSM, and SGX.

I think the answer to that will be, if/when that happens, it would need review. This is also why we need people on Council, Board and Techstaff that are known and trusted entities, especially there must be trust between those on the Board (holding legal liability) and those approving those images.
