Bug#417598: Displaying the default item without having to edit menu.lst

Package: grub
Version: 0.97-16.1~bpo.1
Severity: wishlist

If the package included a tiny script that did something like the  
following:

   egrep '^(title|default)' /boot/grub/menu.lst | nl -v-1 |  cut -f  
1,4 | sed -e's/ *-1\t/Default=/'

...then I would surely use it everyday. grub-show-default? :-)

(Perhaps something similar should be done in the output of "update- 
grub" as well?)
