OK so it's confirmed that with kernel 3.2 the subvol= behavior changed from relative to set-default subvolume to always being absolute whether it starts with / or not. And subvolume set-default is intended to affect the mount command absent usage of subvol option. So the change needed for GRUB is it should ignore the set-default and always treat prefix paths as absolute starting from top level 5 subvolume. That makes things more clear and less complicated and also won't break bootability if the user wants to e.g. always mount their current home subvolume by default, then nothing else is affected.
