Hello Guido, While I see that the patch is rather trivial, I share same feeling of Robert. Let me explain it a bit more... We're in the way for moving to grub2 and it's a very demanding task. Adding new features to grub-legacy just makes this worse. My idea here is that we put this in grub2 and make d-i to use grub2 when multipath is being use. This is already done for gpt so it's only less thing to worry when moving lenny to it.
