One cannot protect users from themselves for everything ;).Then you'll probably agree to rediscuss this issue after all platform-specific files are moved into their subdirectories. Should take care of the most of issue nicely.I think that addresses my personal issue, but maybe not for others that want to put it in directory X not X/$platform. Would you be amenable to an additional override flag? Like --force-prefix=/real/path/to/modules_and_stuff?prefix will be "X". Just on runtime it will add platform to it when loading modules and .lst (but not locale, themes and grub.cfg)
Sorry -- prefix is the wrong term. It is interesting that you're going beyond what I thought, though; I thought you were just going to do what grub-mkrescue did by creating the platform subdirs and putting grub.cfg in there that does platform-specific stuff then sources ../grub.cfg; I think that was a good approach, since you ended up with the generic entries in the ../grub.cfg file and platform-specific goodness in the platform dirs.
