%s/Fedora/Fedora %version/ and I like it better.
However, I think this is trending away from the
'don't show/allow grub menu with single kernel'
patch discussion> <grin/>
This is what we do in Mageia, and I would not be opposed to this.
However, I don't want it to be _hard_ to actually get to the menu.
When we transitioned from GRUB Legacy to GRUB 2, we lost a bunch of things:
* Styled GRUB boot menus that don't look like garbage
* Timeout to auto-boot without showing the full menu
* Nested menus to move more "advanced" and "less used" items out
Most of these things exist in other distributions, just not Fedora.
For example, it's a staple in both Mageia and openSUSE. Ubuntu does
most of these things too. Fedora is a weird outlier in that we've been
lazy with the presentation of our boot process for a while now.
