My impression (from the grub mailing lists) is that editing grub.cfg is not such a big deal. The guys who make a noise about it are the distro guys not the grub guys. Of course if you dont know how to use an editor and/or the command-line looks like incomprehensible gobbledy-gook... you better listen to the distro folks!
