What verbatim means when people read that from the manual is really not
up to me. Here my attempt was merely to fix problem as you did but
mostly reflecting my own point of view. Afterall the table provided in
the description can easily be used as reason to turn down the patch if
it really not making sense on the premise that we have agreed on a real
fix would be looking like, be it yours, mine or anyone else's proposal.

It is absolutely bugfix, however any prospective impact on grub.cfg that
a bugfix would introduce is always a thing for upstream to adopt it.
