[Message part 1 (text/plain, inline)]
Despite of being discussing how to implement all of these properly. I 
feel it's right to show you my current work so that you can comment on it.

I attach my updated patches.

1) The main differences from my original patches are:

* I use more additional bootloader functions
* The code ensures that each bootloader can be used in its role, being 
it a primary bootloader o a secondary bootloader. That way we avoid the 
user being able to generate non bootable isos.

2) For the time being I am not maintaining the syslinux-efi branch till 
we manage to get a consensus on this one. Then I will rebase it, change 
the partition type and re-test it.

3) As I have mentioned in another message I plan to work on giving the 
user the ability of creating isos using:
--bootloaders="grub-efi" thus using grub-efi as a primary bootloader.

4) The patches can be found as a git branch (based on live-build master 
branch) here:
