Why would you use this and not APPEND? (or am I totally
misunderstanding something?)

A few more lines of context would have helped. Here is the code just after the patch.

            if append:
                cfgfile.write('APPEND ')

                if initrd:
                    cfgfile.write('initrd=/initrd ')

                cfgfile.write('LABEL=%s '% (label))

                cfgfile.write('%s %s\n' % (append, btype[1]))
            else:
                cfgfile.write('APPEND %s\n' % btype[1])

The extra kernel parameters are added to btype[1] and then written out as part of the APPEND field.

Does that make sense?
