Yep. I don't think we need or want to make a difference for "preboot" or other payloads. All payloads should be equal. The "preboot" ones will probably be written by us anyway (e.g. lbmenu) and they can just return control to LinuxBIOS. Most existing payloads (memtest, OFW, Linux, etc.) will not ever return anyway, so they can't be "preboot" payloads in any sense, at least I don't see how.
