What are the implications if someone grabs a different IEC320 power
cord, with 3 conductors and 3 pins on the wall outlet end?  Would the
product still meet safety requirements?

I saw a product once that was double-insulated, and they removed the
ground pin from the _IEC320_receptacle_ (on the equipment).  You could
use any power cord, regardless of whether it had a ground wire.
Very strange looking.
