Whether the bootloader is in ROM or FLASH makes little practical difference 
to what it can do.  If it's in ROM the only real difference is that it 
can't be written over.  Which means it can't use that same memory area to 
store parameters and it can't be updated in place.

That does mean it's more difficult to trash the bootloader, which is a good 
thing.
