In general, I'm not happy with this kind of drastical changes specially at
this time.  We're supposed to be replacing GRUB Legacy with GRUB 2, *that*
is the reason we rewrote GRUB almost from scratch.

This gives us plenty of room for newer/fancier stuff.  For example GRUB 2 is
portable, and it's being ported to a number of platforms.  But we haven't
even finished exploiting the current design and we're already discussing
major changes to the GRUB core.  Isn't this something for GRUB 3 ?

Distributors want something which does the job and is first and foremost stable
and robust.
