"vga=" does not have to be on kernel line.

"vga=", as well as "rhgb" and "quiet" can be in "global" section.
that is, lines which precede the kernel selections.

ie;

+++
# Note that you do not have to rerun grub after making changes to this file
# NOTICE:  You have a /boot partition.  This means that
#          all kernel and initrd paths are relative to /boot/, eg.
#          root (hd1,8)
#          kernel /vmlinuz-version ro root=/dev/sdb8
#          initrd /initrd-version.img

## [global lines]
#boot=/dev/sda
default=0
timeout=10
## splashimage=(hd1,8)/grub/splash.xpm.gz
## hiddenmenu
## rhgb
## quiet
vga=794
acpi=force
nodmraid

## [kernel selections]
####
