Okay, I'm game for improvement.   We can put in a dedicated note to establish grub expectations.

There's a list of things anaconda can't or won't do that might be fitting in the release notes. I've been deliberately vague in this beat on such things because I want readers to get a positive impression of newUI and a bunch of negatives makes that harder. Not impossible, though; I like the new anaconda.

I wouldn't so much characterize it as a negative, as much as it's in conforming with upstream recommendations (or maybe upstream best practices).

Interestingly, kickstart-configurator appears to have the oldui install boot loader to a partition option. I don't know if that means it's "supported"; and also if it makes sense to punt and document merely the --force flag to use block lists like kickstart and prior anacondas? It's certainly easier to document, although with a retort from GRUB2 that block lists aren't recommended.

And then perhaps change this for F19, by going with documenting the more stable and recommended approaches (using configfile, multiboot, or kernel).
