I have no way to test stk500 patches, but if they work fine for you,
by all means please go ahead and apply them.

That would be nice (in general for all programmers, not just stk500).
More general "universal command" from command line would be nice too.
The chips may have some undocumented commands to play with, etc.

But, you don't have to go into terminal mode: you can also upload
a small hex/srec file (containing just the bytes that should be
changed) to the segment "fuse" (instead of flash/eeprom).
