With the current efforts under way with aarch64 and ppc64le, I would like to suggest that s390x also be added as an alternative architecture. Obviously hardware would be the biggest obstacle, but I do not see any reason why we couldn't get started with just emulated hardware.

What sort of hardware do we need to support the emulation? I'd imagine this would be painfully slow for the bootstrap, but perhaps that's ok.
libvirt/qemu supports s390x emulation, so we could simply use commodity x86_64 hardware.
