As this is EFI specific, I would appreciate to have "efi" in the command name, too. Maybe all EFi related commands should be collected as "efi " like we did it with the "env" commands long ago. For backward compatibility e. g. 'efidebug' could be kept, but the new name would be 'efi debug'; likewise, your new command would be 'efi bootmgr' [or just 'efi boot' ?] Thanks!
