I actually wrote a UEFI boot loader a few weeks ago that loads the kernel, initramfs and command line directly from a file on the root fs. It uses the efifs project to let it load directly off of an ext4 file system.

It's nice to use compared with grub, just edit a file and reboot. I've struggled to understand exactly how the fedora boot system is configured, and which command I need to run or file to edit to get it reconfigured.

The extra step of running the command to generate the final output file has saved my ass many times since it checks for errors as well. Other than that command it's the same process isn't it? Edit /etc/default/grub, run command to validate and apply, reboot?
