Yes.  And adding support for a game in GRUB is no justification for getting a
new GRUB into etch at this time.

When I have some time, I'll finish my work on update-grub2 and integrate it
upstream.  The current update-grub in GRUB2 package is NOT update-grub2.
Please don't submit patches against it either, it'll completely be replaced.
