Standalone applications are supposed to be run using the "go" command. This patch removes standalone images handling from the do_bootm().

For me handling standalone images in bootm is a big win and I do not want it removed.

Agree. But bootm is not a place for standalone applications, bootm is a OS booting command. uImage support for standalone applications will be re-added when the new uImage format is implemented, perhaps as a separate command.
I guess I don't see why bootm shouldn't be able to boot whatever types of u-boot image files the code knows about. Why make n different boot commands for each format (unless there is a 'one ring to bind them all' kind of master boot command that will call the correct one).
In any case, can it please wait for deletion until the other code is ready?
