Its a bit more than just oveclocking/governors and performance tweaks. JB should really use all new PowerVR drivers and some additional ion memory driver tweaks. This provides most of the buttery smoothness that we've come to appreciate in JB. Also, the OS source for running camera/hd codecs has been updated to match and then where users look for additional support for OTG devices all happens at the kernel level.
When you cant change the kernel and grow with the OS that you're running, devs have to start hacking features in to work. and while in some cases this just how its done (locked bootloader phones with more security): in most cases the end result is always affected.
In our case, I may also need kernel changes to rewrite the fairly complicated and very proprietary audio driver. I'm still digging to see what my options are tho.
