Hi @robins, thanks for the info! 
BlueOS is open source, and extendable to other systems - the best approach for this kind of thing is to do the modifications with checks to a variable (presumably $ARCHITECTURE in this case) as relevant, so that it chooses the correct code to execute for the system in use.
I’ve raised an issue for adding Ubuntu support, but we likely won’t get a chance to work on it. If you (or someone else) can pull together the relevant changes into a pull request we would be happy to review it and try to get the changes merged in so everyone can benefit from them
