Hi!

Tomáš Čech <address@hidden> skribis:

I think <menu-entry> is the right abstraction level for this use case;
<boot-parameters> may be overkill for that.

To me <boot-parameters> was an internal thing, I didn’t understand we
were going to expose it.  Can’t we keep exposing ‘menu-entry’?  We’ll
probably have support the ‘menu-entry’ form for backward-compatibility
reasons at least.

Thoughts?

Thanks,
Ludo’.
