CyanogenMod's a huge improvement on factory-loaded Android where openness is concerned. Were I buying a smartphone, I would make sure CyanogenMod fully supports the hardware and plan on reflashing it immediately. In fact, 'don't trust preloads' seems like a good policy with pretty much any computing device, where feasible.
However one problem is that you often lose features when doing that. Last time I checked there was a replacement image for my Xperia X10 phones which had the down-side of lacking camera support!
That would be the "fully supports the hardware" that Rick mentioned :P
