No. What if you put ata.mod in core.img? You would expect your disks
will be detected and that grub.cfg will be loaded immediately. The
user doesn't want to run a command to enable ata.mod and afterwards
load the grub.cfg manually.
A better solution, IMO, would be changing grub-mkrescue so it doesn't
load all modules.
