Just cataloguing an enhancement request from FOSDEM 2003: Debugging support commands in RedBoot, i.e. the ability, from the RedBoot prompt, to do things like exitting back to the ROM monitor prompt (with Ctrl-c, a physical button on a board, soft magic in the application or whatever), breakpoints, stepping, etc. I know Cygmon used to have these (plus a simple non-GPL disassembler for x86 and some other arch), and of course "competing" ROM monitors also do.
