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.
