Nice grub2 theme, John :-) How much does your theme cost?
- counted as increased iso file size - counted as increased boot time If the cost is insignificant, it is a very good idea, particularly because I think it makes 'dual booting beginners' happier. (I guess you do not intend to show the grub menu in single boot systems.)
