mkconf?

Could it be a bit more verbose ;)... if we are to go path of
grub-mkconfig (or even grub-make-config). Thou I prefer myself
grub-update-config being more descriptive on what it does.

grub-update-config --out <file> could be easily used to override where
to save the generate configuration file.
