It would be nice to be able to add properties to a menuentry. My first
idea is a logo property.
I think this could be done through a new command such as:
logo "Entry name" filename

Why not substituing variable at creation (unsubstitued one can be escaped) ?
Eg: @ "Partition $i" { linux /vmlinux root=/dev/hda$1 prefix=$$prefix }
Humm maybe too complex ?
