So I'd say the next steps are:
1. Pick out your changes that are related to renaming grub to
bootloader and add a shim for the uboot parts. That should be enough
to get vm's booting.
2. Add your extlinux.conf generation/install code.
3. We can still add an install uboot to MBR procedure if it's necessary.
This would break the changes down into easy to review patches and subgoals...
