I have two comments:
1. As far as I know none of the developers are interested reading other's sms messages. Rather they spend time to make the application better and more fun to use.
2. If you have fear that your messages end in strangers' hand then you should consider not using the android phone at all, since it is a confirmed bug in the android messenger application that it sometimes sends sms to a wrong number...

I prefer to use something which doesn't have the ability to read sms etc at all.
There are also lots of people who don't want to examine source code and alter manifests etc. So for them there is another option as linked to earlier.
The chandan-pitta remote is also more feature rich right now. For me the ability like the iphone xbmc remote to recursively play all video from here is a real killer feature and one of the strongest reasons i also use it.
I do notice however that this app is scheduled to get "play all from here" at release 1.0 so might have to re-evaluate then.
In all fairness the official app looks more polished and seamless. Chandan's interface is a little cluttered and use of similar icons for many functions means you have to play around with it for a while before you get used to where everything is.
The beauty is try out both see which one you prefer or use both.
Cheers.
