UDF defines a "UDF Bridge" disk that is "El Torito" compatible. So UDF punted on boot ability by allowing compatibility with CD-ROMs. 

 EFI supports booting from an ISO-9660 file system that conforms to the “El Torito” Bootable CD-ROM Format Specification on a DVD- ROM. A DVD-ROM that contains an ISO-9660 file system is defined as a “UDF Bridge” disk. Booting from CD-ROM and DVD-ROM is accomplished using the same methods.

I'm fine with adding a UDF file system driver, but it is not required from a UEFI Spec conformance point of view. 

Thanks,

Andrew Fish

PS "El Torito" was the restaurant that Curtis and Stan wrote out the proposal on a napkin. Luckily device paths are not called "House of Teriyaki", or even worse the nickname "rats and rice".
