Personally, I believe it the last point is a bad idea. Asking package maintainers to provide boot setup for several boot systems is going to leave some of these setups to slowly decay as only the one used by the package maintainer will get proper testing. I believe we need to come up with a way where most or all package maintainers (perhaps those handling kernel events and early boot stuff should be expected) only need to maintain one boot setup for their package, and this boot setup should be used by all the different boot systems.
