I advise against using set-default at all.  The setup Ubuntu seems to be 
going for ( and is working well for me so far ) creates two subvolumes 
under the default root, named @ and @home, and intended to be mounted in 
/ and /home respectively.  The /@ subvolume is then mounted as the root 
via rootflags=subvol=@ argument, and grub is configured to use 
/@/boot/grub as its prefix directory.

I'm still getting a "sparse file not allowed" error during boot, and 
have to press enter to continue though.  Still not tracked that one down.
