Basically, it was so easy to do that the emissions regulators forced the manufacturers to make it a lot more difficult. From what I understand from a couple of people who have looked at the software, it's really heavily integrated into the systems, and designed to catch deletes and put the car into limp mode.
In comparison, yes, it was relatively easy with the E90 models.
That's pretty normal, happens with every refresh. Somebody will crack it, the thing holding it up for the N47 may be that the N57 is a much more popular tuning engine so not as many tuners would be working on the N47.
