If coreboot ever supports UEFI, UEFI will be implemented as an optional compatibility module.
There is a UEFI compatibility module for coreboot. I had forgotten it existed because almost nobody wants EFI stuff (especially because you can boot Linux just fine without EFI/BIOS). Sorry.
Coreboot has SeaBIOS as BIOS compatibility module and it is optional, of course. coreboot+SeaBIOS can boot Windows XP, Windows Vista and Windows 7 besides most BSDs and Linux.
coreboot already works fine with Qemu and also with Qemu+KVM. In fact, lots of testing is done in Qemu because it allows fast boot test cycles.
