I vote for grub2 cdrom support.
I suppose that you have designed grub2 the best way possible but Grub
legacy wasn't.
These two years that I've been working with grub cdroms I've found two
or three problems from the fact that grub cdrom was not tested fully.
For example when an error happened the cur_part_offset variable had to
be reset so that the cdrom was read ok and it wasn't reset.
Moreover I think that if we want grub2 to be a great software it should
be tested in a earlier stage of development on all the devices where it
can it boot from.
