I think we should just handle a (nested?) (a-)list of operating-system
objects.  It would be useful for a lot of other use cases too.  I for
one would like to have the option to boot my Thinkpad with libre
software by default but have the ability to use drivers from The
Forbidden Channel when I bring it to campus and need wifi.
Or to be able to choose a noPAE kernel on old machines.  Or have both an
LTS kernel and the latest release, and maybe even a nightly build for
testing.
