That is exactly what I intended to do here.
We have only one FMP driver (either FIT or RAW) which is based on
U-Boot's DFU framework and we need only one payload since, for
multiple objects of firmware, we can use FIT format as a payload.
That is what FIT is aimed for.
Or you can use multiple RAW capsule files with different indexes
("--index" exists for this purpose).

That is an expected behavior, isn't it?
If you want to use a different FMP driver (with another GUID),
you naturally need to add your own FMP driver.

"Build time" of what?
I think that users should know how "dfu_alt_info" is defined
(in other words, where the firmware be located on the target system)
when capsule files are created.
