I see. Good to know, thanks for the information.

If I understand this correctly, grub can simply ignore the flag, which will make
it attempt to read the filesystem anyway.
Although, if it fails to read the FS for 'some reason', maybe it can print out
a debug message then saying such flag was set in the filesystem? This may give
some extra information to the user?!
Cheers.
