In light of this, I find it interesting that the Mint devs found it worthwhile to start working on this whenever they did. I guess people have been worried/cautious about how Canonical handle things for a while now.

IBM has actually done a lot to help linux over the years. It has provided lots of code and funding. It also stood up to SCO when they tried to claim copyright to all the UNIX code within linux.
From what I read, they are interested in the cloud computing part of RedHat, they will probably let the rest run business as usual as long as it is generating a profit.
In addition, there is always CentOS which is a distro that is essentially Red Hat Advanced Server Linux minus the cost. Even if something did change, CentOS would probably get rid of the crap. (even though they kept SystemD)
