Title:
  Not possible to customize order of os-prober generated entries without
  grub.cfg hacking.(original: Separate os-prober script to per operating
  system.)

Status in “grub2” package in Ubuntu:
  Invalid

Bug description:
  It's more handy to adjust os order when script is separated per
  operating system instead of classifying only ubuntu itself/all others.

  For now if I would like to place Windows entries(which is generated by
  /etc/grub.d/30_os-prober) above Ubuntu itself(/etc/grub.d/10_linux) I
  have to rename the script to something like 09_os-prober, however
  other OSs beside Windows will also move forward.

  If we split os-prober script to per OS family like the scripts under /usr/lib/os-probes/mounted
  `````
  05efi*      10qnx*     20microsoft*  40lsb*   80minix*  90linux-distro* 10freedos*  20macosx*  30utility*    70hurd*  83haiku*  90solaris*
  `````
  it'll be much elegant to accomplish the same task.
