Once a wise guy said: good software makes complex things look easy

- judging grub2 based on this only, grub2 is worse than grub1

P.S. May be someone likes to introduce a user-friendly name mapping, where a 
user can create a file like:

	hd1, 2 - my name is sue
	hd2, 3 - I'm the preffered one :)
	hdx, y - last not least, I'm here too

which is evaluated by update-grub.
Extraordinary would be support for placeholders like kernel-version or screen 
resolution, ...
