That's what I mean. There's unfortunately not an allrounder, yet. One
old and unmaintained, one still older bootloader, one newer and
maintained but still unstable and one newer and maintained with not so
many supported filesystems.

So I'm not sure if it's the best for now to having every bootloader in
[core]. Of, course the best would be if there would be one real good,
stable and by upstream actively maintained bootloader so that there's
no need for other ones.
