The idea about letting grub-mkconfig do such things is that since it has access to a complete Unixy environment, it can be smarter than what GRUB would do. Also, this design allows GRUB to be smaller/faster that it would be if we had to do everything at every boot. -- Robert Millan The DRM opt-in fallacy: "Your data belongs to us.
