Probably not. Would any other vendors' clothing work if you change the base figure's weightmap?

That's where the JCMs come in for a morph for a commercial product. 

There are several rerigged figures, Billy-T has one here in the MP for TY2, and there are free ones for (at least) V4, M4 LOD, D3 and V3.

The weight maps can be transferred to clothing with Poser Place Outfitter, which is Open-Source under the GPL, and works with non-Pro Poser.

Yes and they add a layer of complexity to the product that isn't officially supported. If someone doesn't frequent the forums, they may not know how get the needed tools.  And direct support is not there for those aboved named figures, so they don't have much of a reach beyond the person making the product.
