After reading all the postings about official ICS update from Sony, I just wonder whether it would be possible to just install ICS as a customized rom, the official Google version respectively. I mean, I could deal with losing all the Sony features. Did the same with my Arc S and it works properly.

Yep, we'd definitely need at least root and probably a working Custom Recovery too. A modded kernel would make things easier too, all of which are quite a feat to accomplish. At the moment, until we get root, we'll just have to make do with whatever official updates we get.
If it was possible, screen should be calibrated too. Hardware buttons etc. Would NOT be possible, so sorry 
Hardware buttons are not necessary in ICS, since just like HC there is a bar at the bottom of the screen that houses the multitasking, home, back and contextual menu buttons.If it was possible, screen should be calibrated too. Hardware buttons etc. Would NOT be possible, so sorry
Root is just the first step. Recoveries and ROMs are still in the distant future I would imagine, but root is great!
as unclespoon mentioned, the short answer is no.
Root allows developers and users more access to their system, but the Tablet would need a custom bootloader and recovery before we could get anywhere on this kind of thing, both of which are a very serious undertaking.
