Well, as for the importance of this bug, I suppose that people "expert" enough to want to have multiple installations probably should know how to edit grub menus, but I'm a bit disappointed that there have been two releases since Hoary without fixes for this. Had I had time, I would have attempted a Dapper install by now and would have seen this again, but surely this kind of testing shouldn't fall upon random end-users to test, especially since a review of the code would probably have revealed the cause. The big question is and was this: have we (or do we) test our installs alongside existing ones? If the answer is no, the testing process should be improved, because it's a pretty big omission, really.
