  I'm, too. It might be good to use Pliant for GUSH and Hurd.

  I never worry and I don't intend to criticize you. I just want to
hear why you and others thought of adding a real scripting language
into GRUB. I assume that you have some idea for that, as you wrote

        Add a real scripting language, possibly retaining backward
        compatibility so that old config files can be used.
