It doesn't apply in loader/i386/pc/chainloader.c at all.
I think some parts could be split and applied separately. I don't think
there are any objections against supporting nested partitions. But I
think it would be better to support letters for BSD partitions if it's
not too hard.

I think the networking is better split from GRUB as a separate project
under GPLv2. It would be a huge effort to reimplement networking under
GPLv3. And I don't see it as a priority. The priority should be
supplanting GRUB1, yaboot and other bootloaders currently in use.
