For Omap I am not sure. Making it bootable indeed requires two images,
so of these should be handled here. I don't know though how this could
be handled in a generic command.
Kernel and rootfs is another story, this shouldn't be handled here.
This command is thought to be for the potentially dangerous barebox
update where you only have a single try. Also, flashing kernel or rootfs
is not really SoC or board specific.
