The current status of it are exactly what you found out.
I don't know if that'll ever change.

rootnoverify isn't needed anymore, because root is now just a variable
and not anymore a command which tried to verify it. So basically
rootnoverify is default now.
chainloader --force just skips the check for 0xaa55, normally it
shouldn't be needed with a valid windows bootsector.
