I was rather shocked when I tried to use starfield theme. Theme itself
and menu are very nice but command like and menu editing is near to
unusable. See screenshot. Is it some local problem or others see the
same?

Not sure if this helps.. but this looks suspiciously like you are using
a proportional font in a cell-based display.
Do recent versions of grub support proportional fonts?

That helps a lot. grub looks for DejaVuSans and finds it. Now we also
have DejaVuSansMono and using this one really looks much better. Thank
you!
