It really depends upon your aim. In theory they seem to have no problem with a submod, but if it's simply to change a few things you see as wrong but the majority doesn't, then I don't think it's exactly a great thing.

Still, we're waiting on a decompiled version of the code (fingers crossed) at the Second Age Server. And apart from that, if we can't get it we'd still like to know why not, as we can apparently edit the mod with their express permission but not have the decompiled code to avoid errors, which I deem very weird.

Anyway, I've digressed rather far from my point. It's by no means impossible to get the permission of the mod maker for a submod, but seeing how little there honestly is to what you're suggesting but extremely minor changes, I doubt you'd get that permission.
