Very well explanation and recommendation
Really appreciate your effort and willing spend time explain this useful information which we may not know or hear about this before.
I hear alot abt "protected bootloaders" but still blur and not really understand abt this. Due to this, i still fear to change to any custom ROM.
How we know our tab contain "protected bootloaders"? Is it safe to apply Chainfire and Rotohammer way as above described?
What are your previous experience flash to custom ROM?

But now with the patch release , it is actually safe to flash . However as usual you are warned that there is still a chance you might brick. I don't blame the developers as it is just a statement to protect themselves from nay complains. After all it is at your own risk
But it is highly recommended that if possible find a rom where the bootloaders are not signed ; these rom cooks remove it. A very good example is Rotohammer v4 which is very well recommended by many. I am using his rom. Source :

One advantage of using Rotohammer rom, you can easily put in a Clockwork Recovery based on Chainfire CF Root, which is 100% compatible :

This Clockwork recovery is very important as it allows you to create a NANDROID of full system/data/apps backup of your TAB> If you were to flash any kernel or rom and things go wrong and you are stuck, you can easily restore back your TAB to your last status ( with all your apps/data/themes etc intact )
