Wouldn't this be a BOOT_PRELOAD?
I thought about this before (see archives about scripting), making it
possible for the user to add hooks.
In C:
... menu code ...
/* The `menu' hook has one argument. */
grub_hook_invoke ("menu", 1, arglist);
In scripting:
function menu_hook_handler()
save_env;
hook --register --hook=menu --script menu_hook_handler
Or do you think I am crazy now? ;-)
This will involve some scripting hacking, but might pay off. Do you
think this is too complex for users?
