completely agree, it's long overdue.
hardware manufacturers should be less concerned about what their firmware reveals about their IP and more concerned with what not revealing their firmware source code reveals about their security.
the fact that you can get DMA by compromising _any_ device on the bus is a problem too. imo, none of these peripherals should have unmitigated DMA.
