A slight tangent, but still kind of relevant: given that we're lumbered with UEFI on x86-64, are there any active projects working on a better UEFI shell?

Every time I interact with it, I am struck by how awful it is, but the shell is just an EFI application so presumably one could replace it with something better written. Searching turns up EFI menus aplenty, but no one has (yet) taken a shot at a simpler, cleaner EFI shell from what I can see?
