Why do we silently ignore more entries ?

A valid remark, I agree that adding a pr_warn_once here would be good
I will do so for the next version.

And could documentation be
added for ways in which this could be used in practice?

I can write a little how to use this to get an embedded firmware,
I will add this to firmware/fallback-mechanisms.rst for the next
version.

Regards,

Hans
