Thats just my opinion - as always, patches are gladly accepted. Just remember who we are, what we are doing. Somebody at the Linux Plumbers Conference said, "Every time I see a splash screen, I wonder what they have to hide". Coreboot is the only loader on earth that doesn't actually have anything to hide. Lets try not to go overboard architecting a solution for one problem we don't have.
in fact I may let linux do the splash screen anyway -- all other options are looking painful.
Remember the original linuxbios slogan? "Let Linux do it".
One thing I've noticed is that, having dropped Linux as a primary payload, we are recreating lots of code for things linux can already do.
Once we start to implement IPV6 in a payload, we need to stop and think hard about what we are doing.
