@ #3, #4

Most users who will install (x)ubuntu will do so on a laptop or PC
bought pre-installed with MS Windows.  Reluctant simply to wipe this
familiar OS in exchange for something new and untried, they will end up
with a multi-boot system with a Grub2 bootloader when they install
(x)ubuntu.

After kernel updates, the default Grub start-up choice screen becomes
more and more cluttered with options, which, to most normal laptop and
PC users - who are unfamiliar with the ins and outs of Linux and
bootloaders - will simply be unintelligible and confusing, and commonly
irrelevant.

To them, etc/default/grub is Sanskrit, terminal screens a cryptic
reminder of the troublesome DOS era, and guides on the web of little use
as they don't know what to look for since most people haven't got a clue
what a bootloader is and does.

A simple GUI application which enables basic configuration of the Grub2
start-up choice screen, such as the removal of unused menu items,
ordering of the remaining menu items, default OS/kernel selection, time-
out length setting, and so on, can take away much of the frustration.
