As Peter said this was already discussed in the "The future of legacy BIOS support in Fedora" thread [0]. I mentioned there that Anaconda already supports an option to use extlinux, so the same could be done for sd-boot. It shouldn't be a lot of work as you mentioned but someone will have to propose the patches to Anaconda.
