don't advertise your hack for the general public (few people know what
'blessing' the yaboot image means, or what the funky hd:,\tbxi does, for
instance).

I think you mean "hd:,\\:tbxi", but yes, definitely agreed, since MacOS very much likes to unbless partitions that don't belong to it - having a rash of "I can't boot Linux on my Power Mac! I did [blah foo bar], make it work!" is what made Ethan Benson say "don't install yaboot on a MacOS partition, OR ELSE" and other such stern warnings.
