I saw your patches before and also the recent message by Ada Avery: I very much agree with the need for change here! The current design indeed inherits from a GRUB-only vision (after all, the U in “GRUB” was meant to stand for “unified” :-)) and has become problematic, as this GCD clearly explains. Regarding the design, I wonder if the mapped-device/mapped-device-type pattern (or package/build-system pattern) is relevant. The other important matter is ensuring backwards-compatibility for user configs. At any rate, all the power for this GCD! Thanks, Ludo’.
