Exit Flashrom/AVRDude binmode from terminal?

Hello! I would like to use my Bus Pirate 5 to automate some development tasks, using multiple binmodes at different times.

I can switch to binmode BPIO2 flatbuffer interface and back out again via the text terminal interface.

However, though I can switch to binmode Legacy Binary Mode for Flashrom and AVRdude (EXPERIMENTAL), the only way I can switch back out again is by pressing the Bus Pirate’s physical button (or by unplugging/replugging the USB cable).

Would it be possible to permit switching out of the Flashrom/AVRdude binmode from the terminal, without requiring the user to physically interact with the Bus Pirate?

I think it should be possible to a new escape command. I’m not familiar with that code, but I will have a look and see if I can add an easy exit point.
