If this option is enabled, then do all of the following:
Don't display introductory message about line editing unless we're
actually offering a shell prompt. (This is believed to be a workaround
for a different bug. We'll go with this for now, but will drop this in
favour of a better fix upstream if somebody figures out what that is.)
Don't clear the screen just before booting if we never drew the menu in
the first place.
Remove verbose messages printed before reading configuration. In some
ways this is awkward because it makes debugging harder, but it's a
requirement for a smooth-looking boot process; we may be able to do
better in future. Upstream doesn't want this, though.
Disable the cursor as well, for similar reasons of tidiness.
Suppress kernel/initrd progress messages, except in recovery mode.
Suppress "GRUB loading" message unless Shift is held down. Upstream
doesn't want this, as it makes debugging harder. Ubuntu wants it to
provide a cleaner boot experience.

Patch-Name: maybe-quiet.patch
This patch implements a search for a specific configuration when the config
file is on a remoteserver. It uses the following order:
1) DHCP client UUID option.
2) MAC address (in lower case hexadecimal with dash separators);
3) IP (in upper case hexadecimal) or IPv6;
4) The original grub.cfg file.
This procedure is similar to what is used by pxelinux and yaboot:
http://www.syslinux.org/wiki/index.php/PXELINUX#config
It is enabled by default but can be disabled by setting the environment
variable "feature_net_search_cfg" to "n" in an embedded configuration.

Let's provide file type info to the I/O layer. This way verifiers
framework and its users will be able to differentiate files and verify
only required ones.
This is preparatory patch.

If configfile is relative pathname, extend it with current ($root) so its
interpretation does not change if $root is changed later.
Suggested by Vladimir Serbienko.
Defalut font color on PC console seems to be light-gray; this is
what user also gets in rescue prompt and what is defined as
GRUB_TERM_DEFAULT_NORMAL_COLOR. But normal.mod defaults to white.
This makes unpleasant visual effect as colors are changed after kernel
is booted.
Use the same color eveywhere for consistency and default to light-gray
as this is also what at least Linux kernel is using by default.
Add a new timeout_style environment variable and a corresponding
GRUB_TIMEOUT_STYLE configuration key for grub-mkconfig. This
controls hidden-timeout handling more simply than the previous
arrangements, and pressing any hotkeys associated with menu entries
during the hidden timeout will now boot the corresponding menu entry
immediately.
GRUB_HIDDEN_TIMEOUT=<non-empty> + GRUB_TIMEOUT=<non-zero> now
generates a warning, and if it shows the menu it will do so as if
the second timeout were not present. Other combinations are
translated into reasonable equivalents.
