My sources for Chromium's security isn't any better than your's (=Wikipedia), but at least according to it all the "Google evilness" is only in Chrome. Google takes Cromium source code and adds it's user analytics stuff and branding to it. Then rebrands it as 'Chrome'.

EDIT: My understanding is that SRware strips the Chrome stuff off and basically turns your Chrome install into Chromium.
