This adds around 60kb to many platforms, so I'm not going to take this
right now.  But I'm not rejecting it outright.  My question however is,
I was under the impression that the direction distributions were taking
was that bootefi would be used to start GRUB2 and that (and its
filesystem modules) would be responsible for doing the next steps.  So
we wouldn't need btrfs support here for example as everything would be
picked out of the system partition, which is FAT32.   Am I mistaken
about the flow here?  Thanks!
