I don't expect Larian to eliminate hard CC, though notching down even just knockdown and stun would make a massive difference.
Regarding the likelihood of a modder rebalancing the game, that's on me. Changing the status effects to some degree is entirely possible. A new game file they've added has a lot more parameters for editting statuses than the first game. For things that are hardcoded, I might have to create new statuses and replace instances where they are appear. For stun, I probably have to globally apply stun immunity and script a new status. It's some work, but I don't think nearly as much as it sounds. Getting the proper balance is a lot tougher. Scripting an overhaul to the armor system would also be tough, but entirely possible. And Larian hasn't even begun revealing any modder-friendly documentation or tools.
