Your example doesn't show method chaining. It shows method negotiation 
which is a fundamental part of the EAP protocol.

EAP method is possible, but not supported by FreeRADIUS or by many (any?)
supplicants.

Yes, thats how EAP negotiation works currently, but I believe the supplicant
sends back the method it wants to continue with after the initial offer by 
the server.

The default method the server offers, is configurable in the EAP module.
