The value of overclocking is very questionable
It has huge educational value, which is why I think it's important that LB can do it. ..or maybe not..

Yeah, agree with that ;-). It shouldn't be given to the unknowns.
I disagree. Let user shoot self in foot. Maybe politely warn though.
But, what about an "overclocking/underclocking branch" for LinuxBIOS?
My idea is that these tweaks are contained in a separate piece of software. Maybe lbmenu. There's a certain point in letting LB stay LB and just do a very safe, always known-working setup. Then add fancy schmancy on top of that.
This is also important because we may like to have fallback use different performance profiles. Easily done with tweaks in a payload.
