I'm puzzled what you want in the end:

- DRM supported -> not open enough

- DRM disabled because you reflashed a custom image -> bad as well

Supporting DRM doesn't make anything less open - it means you have a feature you can use if you want. If you don't want to use the drm feature, live like you lived with N900.

Trust me, having DRM / trusted platform enabler will mean more software to be available for the device, with zero damage to open ecosystem. Unless you count pirates as part of open ecosystem...
