I agree. IMO, if one thinks that the lack of documentation is a problem, he should make it himself, rather than just complaining. A lot of information is already piled up onto the GRUB wiki and this mailing list, so anybody can achieve this work. (Honestly, I am very pessimistic about this, because of my experience in GRUB Legacy. In this case, many people only complained continuously for years, although they could do themselves. So I had to write the manual myself, merely because I was too tired to see those people any more.)
