I object against opening this pandora box.
If you have so ample resources to run such code, then load a minimal configuration of U-Boot.
Is this a change of heart then?
No - I never was happy about pulling arbitrary code into SPL.

I don't see how this is related?
If I follow you right, to my question of "How would a user make use of 'ROM loads next loader via USB' program?" your answer is "Have it load a normal U-Boot that's minimally configured". That link is TI saying "we have split things up such that ROM loads U-Boot-Min (a minimally configured U-Boot) which can then load a full U-Boot". You NAK'd the idea then. Have you changed your mind? If so, where are we going to draw the demarcation between "OK for SPL" and "Must use a full U-Boot" ?
