(Why “rd.”? I’d use “gnu.” to make sure we don’t inadvertently use
something that has a different meaning elsewhere.)
I agree with the proposed change, I’ve been meaning to do something
about it for a long time, too. :-)
For ‘--root’ is a bit tricky because it’s an implicit option, not
explicitly listed in /run/current-system/parameters and similar places.
So we’d probably have to (1) make it explicit, and (2) use ‘--root’ when
generating a GRUB entry for a system generation that lacks the explicit
“root=XYZ” string in its ‘kernel-arguments’.
