The main goal of open source firmware is include it into installation media. This will help many users to get online over their broadcom wifi cards. The range of wifi cards which work 'out on the box' will grow. Current script 'install_bcm43xx_firmware' will be of course available and can be executed immediately after user gets online. Installing proprietary firmware makes opensource one unnecessary.
Of course that is the goal. As a b43 developer, I support it completely. The question here is "Is it right to include software known to be buggy?". My answer is a resounding "No".
