The major use case (as I understand it) are the FreeBSD users
who need this API for booting. I'm adding Rafal and Bartek to Cc:
as they should know best if this interface is still in wide use.
Best regards,

Software entities are more complex for their size than perhaps any
other human construct because no two parts are alike. If they are, we
make the two similar parts into a subroutine -- open or closed. In
this respect, software systems differ profoundly from computers,
buildings, or automobiles, where repeated elements abound.
