OK. I offered you a way out. It's your decision.
I tried understanding what you are trying to do, and even though I feel it's not exactly an important or frequently used feature for most of the users I tried to come up with a compromize that allows you to do what you want to do without hurting others and without polluting the command name space.
I'm sorry that I wasted my time on thinking about this.
Are you aware that U-Boot does use interrupts here and there? That we actually provide functions to register interrupt handlers to standalone programs, etc. ?
yes i'm aware, but we arent talking about standalone applications here, so those really dont matter.
You have a really, really funny way of deciding what matters and what not. All the things you have in mind do matter (even if they are documented to be unsupported), while other existing and legal ways of doing things don't matter. That doesn't make working with you an easy task.
