In my mind, that is one reason why the approach taken by FlightGear and associated projects lke JSBSim and YASim, etc. are so valuable: because they provide a generic capability, and sensitive information provided in configuration files (flight model, 3D models, etc.) can be owned and controlled. I think it is exactly analogous to your illustration: Microsoft does not own any documents created by Microsoft Word, or Publisher, for instance.
