I've seen these UUID tags break fsck on edgy (after it was released as stable).
I don't think it's a good idea to switch to this in the last minute.

Besides, what's the point of fixing it at the fstab generation?  grub still
expects device ordering to be consistent (and doesn't rely on fstab for device
mapping).

If device ordering can't be made consistent, you can still workaround the
problem in device.map, but then you'll have to change it again post
grub-install or installed system's device.map will be broken.
