I would hope that Lego would use the same idea that they are using with the
Brickilizer, that is, we post the design ( or image in the case of the
Bricklizer ) and an order for the parts is placed, without Lego keeping a
copy of the actual design.
Of course, if they decide to attempt the other method, then I'm certain that
a program to scramble your design, but use exactly the same pieces in the
same colors and quantities will become available from someone who feels the
same way that you do. :-) Without a program to do that, it could still be
done manually, but would be tedious.
BTW, I'm one of the people that feels the same way as you about this. ( in
case I didn't make that clear above.)
