The essential question is if the firmware interface really is
appropriate for FPGAs. It definitely has a feel of a "square peg in a
round hole", especially when you consider the myriad ways FPGAs can be
configured (some persistent, some not, some which takes effect now,
some which come later, some which involve bytecode interpreters...)
and considering reconfiguration and partial reconfiguration.
