As you found yourself ("head -1", "tail -1"...), this is hard to access,
and it is going to introduce (sometimes subtle) bugs in scripts not just
from openwrt upstream, but also downstream and users.
Unless you're saving a very large amount of FLASH with this change, it
*really* isn't worth it. Not even for the 4MiB targets.
Please reconsider.
