Lucid Lynx and grub

[Mario Andes]

Goh Lip, until 09.10 GRUB_DEFAULT defined which system had to be started.
A number or the word 'saved' decided whether always the same system should
be started or the saved number of the last system selected.

Lucid Lynx' grub doesn't start but the first system in the list!
Sure, I can select another one. The advantage of grub 2 was that I didn't
have to select a system every time.

Lucid Lynx, that I got directly by upgrading when available, doesn't offer  
this.

A bug or what do you think?
Regards Mario
