Interesting idea. While looking at the code I stumped over few things below:

These are examples? If yes then add a note, like:
+For example modes common on Android platform:

The "bootloader" and "loader" examples are very confusing. Maybe just
name the first one as "mode-fastboot" and second as
"rockchip-download"? The term "loader" does not look for me as
anything related to uploading/downloading new firmware.

Please, run the spell check...
