I think I would rather not make this an explicitly-advertised option,
but instead recommend that you use dpkg-divert to replace update-grub
with something trivial of your choice, such as a link to /bin/true.
Since this facility is already present in the packaging system, I would
rather recommend that you simply use it instead of adding further
complexity to the grub2 packaging (complexity => increased probability
of error).

Regards,
