I also actively request the U-Boot community to give feedback here - after all, this _is_ a community project and fixing real problems is one of the main tasks of a bootloader.
Personally, I'd prefer using Heikos approach until Arm Linux has moved to device trees. I know it's a deviation from how it's supposed to work, but it also solves a real problem without introducing kludges elsewhere.
