Hello all, I'm new to the group & a non-programmer.

Whatever grub2 can support for those who need it and feel
good about is fine for them. I for one prefer to keep 
anything related to booting as simple and as bulletproof
as possible.

My request is that the rudimentary KISS mechanisms remain
definitely (if optionally) available. I would even propose 
that the simplest possible method always be the default one.
