Ah, yes this was part of my cover letter, which obviously got lost 
somewhere.

Anyways: Reason I thought of was: For example broadcom nvram file names 
must match the compatible string and they have to be copied/symlinked 
over and over if we add new compatibles for every minor changed revision 
of a board. I guess there are more examples for that in userland.

Besides I wasn't aware, that "a bootloader" can do that already I 
understand your concerns and will change it.
