Maybe we should make the filename a property instead of adding a pxe
option?

No. The user should not need to know the file name of the option rom just to enable pxe booting for the nic.

When making the filename configurable it should be a separate property like "rom-name" or simliar. I would suggest to NOT implement it unless users actually ask for it ;)

cheers,
