Right, then fwd my 2 cents: Makes sense to have a wrapper like that for flashing, but - It could/should contain an ELF - u-boot should be capable to just load/boot the ELF, not everybody uses flashable images (netboot anyone ? espectially when debugging) and it's really a burden to do the wrapping all the time. In addition, we just see how it can actually hurt due to losing information such as the BSS size.
