Return to rooted stock from CM

Dearest XDA Gods,

I currently have a rooted HTC One m8 (international) running Marshmallow with an unlocked bootloader, twrp recovery installed and S-Off (thank you Sunshine!).

I'm toying with the idea of switching to cyanogenmod as I have installed it on a couple of my other devices and I love it but I'll probably wait until they've got a CM13 snapshot available (anyone know when this might be?) because I don't want the hassle of downloading nightlies and stability issues.

When I do finally get round to flashing CM, is there a way to get back to my current setup, if I wanted to, without losing root/bootloader/s off? I've created a Nandroid backup of my current system but I understand that this may not be enough to restore the kernel, which I gather is very important if you want your phone to... well... work. I imagine I could just download the stock firmware and flash that but would that mean that I lose my unlocked bootloader and my s off (I love sunshine but I don't want to pay those guys twice!).

Greatly appreciate any advice !

Thanks guys,
George
