I've just merged a patch to gnome-software which adds an optional (but default enabled) dependency on fwupd[1]. The fwupd project just provides a DBus interface for applying low-level firmware to various types of devices.
I don't know if this makes sense for the continuous integration server. I don't know if it makes sense to enable by default. Installing firmware on more devices would be awesome (and make them more secure) but it is Yet Another Dep.
