   How about a replacement or enhancement to either   
   Seabios or Tianocore that simply allows bytes on a   
   USB stick to be zapped?   
      
   What would be "fair game" here?   
      
   But even that would be developed on Windows or Linux,   
   and if I'm going to do that, how about creating an EFI   
   app (not OS) that runs under Tianocore, and is called   
   bootx64.efi, and allows hex editing of disks and copying   
   from disk to disk?   
      
   But if I do that, I may as well make a C compiler as an EFI app.   
      
   And the pseudo-BIOS that I provide for x64 can run multiple   
   such apps.   
      
   What is the logical line that should be drawn?
