Well I didn't say about using a real commercial modular BIOS, but making the QEMU BIOS modular as the commercial ones are. Making the first, will be a HARD task, and, Award/AMI/Phoenix/MrBIOS won't let us to do that. Both VMWare and VirtualPC pays for using a commercial BIOS in theirproducts.
I don't care about the BIOS as long as it works with the hardware that QEMU emulates. I am very satisfied with the current Bochs BIOS. The only missing stuff is PCI init (it is currently done in QEMU), but it is very easy to add.
Of course if other people want to try other BIOSes, they are free to do it :-)
