Maybe. Depends on how much time I have. If I'm gonna commit myself to
adding a LFS installation to my machine. Virtualbox EFI emulation
isn't that stellar. At least my future plans call for using a second
SSD and regular hard drive, so I can set up LFS on that and put
Windows on the main drives.

One hint that I'd personally like to see is for having a Plymouth [1]
splash screen. More eye candy than anything, but it is nice to have a
nice boot screen to fit the general theme of your system. Maybe also
an advanced (and modern) initramfs tutorial - perhaps using either
dracut or Arch's mkinitcpio?
