I suspect you know far more about writing such a tool than I ever will, but far less about coreboot than you need to know. Your first step should be to get it, build it, and boot it in qemu; bonus points for doing it on real
I know a lot people who don't know or have problems compiling coreboot on their own or they don't want to spent hours to compiling the toolchain + coreboot. For these people rom-o-matic is a nice thing.
German hacker culture likes coreboot a lot. Last coreboot user group meeting a journalist showed up. Someone spent her a x60 and she would like to have coreboot on it. But after disassembling the hardware down to the board itself, it turns out, she already got coreboot. I never looked at the x60 bios booting up :).
There are also the cryptoparty people, they also support coreboot. zaolin is doing installation partys at his hackerspace, too. And may others do the same.
