Exactly. I am glad to hear that coreboot has support for QEMU, but seabios does the job already, so why add more layers?
If SeaBIOS does not need any code at all for QEMU machine init I agree there's no point in considering coreboot.
SeaBIOS contains the code necessary to initialize the qemu hardware.
For the details see src/mtrr.c, src/pciinit.c, src/shadow.c, and src/smm.c. These codepaths are disabled when SeaBIOS is compiled for coreboot.
