And here we are again with the old Emil and his 25 seconds...
Personally I think that Ilya and CO should leave the data management to the modders (CloD has born with MOD support, if it's really working) while they should focus only in the physical engine and the graphical engine. Think about the performance of the application, other people will think to add the content (something like rFactor)

If this is done in cooperation with the Devs and those tweaks are released in a way like the Daedalus Team does for IL2, zero problem with that. In fact that could result in achievements of epic proportions.
If, however, the modders all work for themselves and only take those reports and documents for their airplane performance values, then this Sim is dead before it has even taken off.
And the worst case scenario would be individuals tweaking their own aircraft to their liking going into regular server ruining it for all others. How are you going to check that?
IMHO, the files in question should be protected ASAP, not matter if an unofficial development/mod team takes up the work or not.
