Discussing Custom Commanders and backer recognition.

Re: Pledged 1k to this!

I've broken into DLC and preorder features in many games, but for the most part you can only do it in offline mode, they will likely have it secured and unhackable in online mode matches.

Well some form of authentication / anti-cheat will have to exist for multiplayer just so you can't modify your units to do extra damage or be using CheatEngine to give yourself tons of metal or something.

I imagine the custom commander problem will only be for skirmishes, in which case who cares?

Yep exactly, I only expect it to be an issue in modded servers, and single player. Both of which are not really possible to stop, however in the case of mods, it could be a copyright violation to redistribute the art models, and then prevent mods from directly accessing them.
