Sorry for a late reply

Yes, definitely I will be interested. Moreover, today I've implemented an idea for your review. it is a bit more than needed. But probably you will like something from it. I'm cleaning it and will push it soon.
I've pushed a patch about logs. So any comments are welcome. Please take a look. https://review.coreboot.org/c/flashrom/+/86875

Hello Dmitry,

Thank you for your work to create a UI for flashrom!

Overall question to all your 1,2,3 points: if we get to implementing
these, would you be interested to get involved, for example test a
patch or involved in any other way? Especially that you would be using
the new API functions.

I imagine a function returning strings would be sufficient, and that could possibly be expanded later with a way to discover the parameters supported by each programmer (a function taking a programmer name and returning some kind of parameter info struct).
