Great. The gotcha though is this in effect requires a change in the file system 
currently mounted at /boot, which is ext4. And ext4 isn't supported by sd-boot 
or UEFI firmware. So if you're going to support sd-boot, the installer needs to 
be aware that either the ESP is big enough to be used as /boot, or if it's not 
big enough then it will be mounted on /efi*and*  a new partition XBOOTLDR 
formatted as FAT will be used as /boot.

Nobody should use FAT for /boot. efifs[1] should be used instead.

systemd-boot can load these drivers from ESP out of the box[2].
