Fantastic :-)  I'll give it a try.

BTW, one thing I've been wanting to do is get rid of the
boot.loader.grub.bootDevice option.  It should be possible for the menu builder
to figure out itself whether /boot is on a separate partition.  The only tricky
thing is that it has to map /boot to Grub's device name (like (hd0,0)).  But
maybe that's easier in GRUB 2.
