I'm not concerned. I think Verizon likes their phones locked down and that's why the Thunderbolt was like that. And even then, it was rooted before it was released. Sprint is more relaxed and HTC doesn't seem to mind.
Has there ever been an HTC device that didn't get rooted? I would not worry about it until there is actually a reason to worry.
