Its your idea, why not you waste a kindle to test it?

Just connect to the console serial port and learn how to de-brick it starting with u-boot/bis.
You can make the backup images you will be needing while your learning.

Or, pick a Kindle model that uses upstart and is easy to de-brick.
Used ones are widely available.
