Let's just say that I am highly reluctant to have commands not covered
by the UEFI Shell specification included by default. Especially
commands that we know from experience have been misused in order to
not have to figure out a sensible way of doing something properly
... and then been copied to new platforms by new developers coming in
and looking at existing ports for reference.

If you are building a development image, by all means specify an
appropriate build flag and have additional debug features built in.

But if you are looking to use this for non-development builds, I would
very much like to hear your use-case.
