Yes. Perhaps we only want to collect a subset of that information, or at least warn the admin about the issues. I believe The ubuntu hardware database collect that kind of information to <URL:http://hwdb.ubuntu.com/> already, and are reluctant to share the information collected because of it. dmidecode is the only place I know we can get hardware model and for example if the machine support IPMI, so I want to collect at least of of it. Perhaps we should filter out the lines with 'UUID:' and 'Serial Number:' Not sure if it is enough to avoid the sensitive stuff.
