Bib, thank you for reporting this and helping make Ubuntu better.
To see if this is already resolved in Ubuntu, could you please test
http://cdimage.ubuntu.com/daily-live/current/ and advise to the results?
** Description changed:
- Boot looping since initial 14.04 install (nomodeset was the workaround I
used).
- I recently upgraded to 16.04.3 and fell in the same issue as upgrade
overwrote my /etc/default/grub without prompting, AFAIR.
- Digging the issue I found another possible workaround on the web... that
works too, but using the AMD non-free driver : radeon.dpm=0
