[U-Boot] bootelf command for Pandaboard

I have specific need to boot my Pandaboard with an elf image. I noticed that in u-boot-2011.12 bootelf command is disabled by default in omap4_panda_config. I am wondering if there is a reason for not having bootelf command for Pandaboard. Thanks.

If you enable all features and commands available in U-Boot you will end up with a huge image whih consists mostly of unused, unneeded stuff.
If you have requirements for more exotic configurations it's trivial to enable these in your local copy of the config file.
