Yeah, that's basically right. I believe flashprog is also included in libreboot, have a look in the elf/
directory. After that, it should work as expected

Their firmware isn't opensource. At least not fully. Only the EC firmware has been opensourced, that is the firmware for the micro-controller responsible for the battery, keyboard, buttons, LEDs, sensors, and so on...
The boot firmware, responsible for getting the CPU and hardware in a bootable state, is absolutely proprietary. There is initial support for one specific framework motherboard in coreboot, a partially libre boot firmware, but it's very new and I don't know exactly what is and isn't supported...
They've been pretty tame lately, but there have been issues historically that made a lot of people (rightfully) mad. You ca read on them here: https://manjarno.pages.dev/
Hmm, I'm not sure... I must admit, I only use SeaBIOS, not GRUB, so I wouldn't know how to configure it
