(e.g. OMAP, Tegra, Exynos) I'd like to see how it works. as of 2014.04 it will work on tegra, its worked on calxeda since it was added but their default environment is outside of u-boot itself. I have some patches submitted that need futher thought and work converting omap and wandboard. If you have a prefered platform I can throw together a patch for you to test.
Tegra is OK - I have a trimslice and a badger(?) if either of those is OK. So do I just try to install Fedora and see what happens?

Yes, both of those support finding and executing /boot/extlinux.cfg in mainline.
I've just been manually creating extlinux.cfg for now. An example might be:
TIMEOUT 30 default primary
MENU TITLE Venice2 eMMC boot options
LABEL primary MENU LABEL primary kernel LINUX zImage FDTDIR./ APPEND console=ttyS0,115200n8 console=tty1 rootwait rw root=PARTUUID=5f71e06f-be08-48ed-b1ef-ee4800cc860f
