Actually, I would hit the same problem (late visual feedback) with a splash screen: we would need to wait for u-boot to be fully loaded, which takes too much time. (plus, the DE2 video driver only supports HDMI out for now, and I don't have the skills to add MIPI-DSI support) Having the status LED set up in the SPL allows almost-instant visual feedback, which is what I'm looking for here.
