Right, this is definitely interesting. sdboot already offers some nice features for this. bootctl --list: shows available boot menu entries systemctl reboot --boot-loader-entry=ID: select which entry to boot And I believe that there are also dbus equivalents of this. If we want this we should consider either switching to sdboot or make grub support: https://systemd.io/BOOT_LOADER_INTERFACE/ And then this is something which could be an upstream GNOME feature using the systemd DBUS APIs for this. The only problem is that this requires someone to make time to work on this... I personally believe that for the Fedora workstation case it makes sense to just switch to sdboot for EFI installs giving us nice features like this; while at the same time offering a much simpler code-base then grub, which is good from a secureboot POV.
