I think this is a worthwhile effort if someone has the time to fill in the 
blanks, come up with a PoC, and test it with various versions of BIOS, it would 
accelerate deprecation of BIOS. BIOS holds us back when making decisions around 
boot stack, bootloader, firmware upgrade tools, etc.

You may have to port u-boot to different versions of BIOS though.

For example this chainloading technique was considered as a solution to make 
Chromebooks + Coreboot chainload a UEFI loader to install vanilla Fedora 
images, but the disadvantage is you'd have to port u-boot to every Chromeboot:

On the other hand chainloading a UEFI loader works great for Asahi even without 
the efi vars so...
