It says to install a driver but what driver what does it do? Does it wreak havok on the system? Backup beforehand?

All it does is allow you to play games made for different devices on this one. I haven't found a use for it yet. But it doesn't make the graphics any better IMO. But that's me. Load it up and try it out. It won't hurt anything.

Can it be reversed

Yeah. I believe so. Its been a while since I've used it. If nothing else reflashing your ROM will undo it. But I'm almost positive that you can unload the driver it loads.

I've had Chainfire 3D installed on ICS with no issues for a while now.

It's just an intermediary graphics driver. It can help you run some games, or help your phone run faster. I used it for night mode on GB, but it doesn't work on ICS. If you don't need it for games, don't install it.

As far as I can tell by examining the install script, this is not a permanent install.
Everytime you reboot, it will go back to the original CWM and you will have to run the install again to get this recovery.

You are right. It works perfectly. Does backups and installs but won't stick. How can we make it stick sfhub? By packing it into a stock kernel?

Yes, pack it into a stock kernel and flash/install the resulting kernel.
Curious, have you tried flashing the modem?
