Do you plan on rooting your Moto X?

Personally, I do not plan on rooting the Moto X. My reasoning is that the Moto X will have enough onboard storage for my daily use. Rumor has it that Motorola/Google had an agreement with carriers to limit bloatware on the phone (much like Apple). And the Moto X will run on a near stock version of Android with support from Google (updates).

Also with continued development Root may no longer be necessary. Many apps like backup are beginning to function without root (i.e. Helium).

So, I'm just curious what others plan.
