Personal opinion from a longtime fedora user:
1) Why do I have to go to a separate menu to choose a different kernel? Granted, I don't often have to choose an older or custom kernel but "If it ain't broke don't fix it."
2) It should just be "Fedora".
3) I don't like the way the grub menu looks right now with or without the theme. I like the old text non ubuntu/debian looking grub menu but that's just the oldskool person in me talking.

Sounds reasonable. Show kernel versions only when they are really needed.
