Using high-boot configuration on boards with flashes bigger than 1MB is not optimal IMHO because it creates "hole" in the flash. I personally can't see any reason to configure such boards for high-boot. I agree
Agreed. Actually I don't see _any_ reason to configure a board for high-boot.
The problem is that you usually have to specify BR0_PRELIM/OR0_PRELIM which can't refer to variables like flash_info. You can initialise chip selects in the flash driver if you write board-specific driver but if you use common driver (CFI) things are more complicated.
Yet another reason for me to use the CFI driver, umm, only occasionally.
