Also:
- EFI has to be vfat anyways.
- ext2 (with journalling on) gave me too many headaches to consider it
  superior in terms of stability; btrfs has been a much better
  experience.
- Given the limitted size of /boot, it would be easily feasible to keep
  a dd image just in case (on the root file system, assuming a recovery
  option which could be a live usb with a "rescue/chroot" entry").
  Come to think of it: We may want thos for EFI as well.
