This sounds like a nice solution for the SD card images.
I myself always use a wired connection, but I saw yesterday that someone tried 
to use d-i for RockPro64 but didn't get any output on screen and then tried 
again using their TV ... but then it needed to use a wireless connection and I 
actually had no idea how that could/should be provided during install.

Giving ppl the option to concat a firmware archive if they need it, sounds like 
an elegant solution to me :-)
