for statements allowed outside menuentries?

for statements allowed outside menuentries?

[adrian15]

This is a question for Marco Gerards I suppose.

I was asking myself if in grub2 code I was allowed to do:

for (part in partitions) {

   menuentry($part) {
		whatever($part.grub_string);
	}

}

or if it was all restricted to for inside menuentries like:

   menuentry() {
		for (hd in harddisks) {
		whatever hd
		}
	}

This is something I proposed a while ago.  I want to make this
possible so it will become easy to generate meny entries.
