It is certainly one of the things we have discussed.
This has also been discussed. However, it is a lot more work both from an implementation and a support perspective.
There are some challenges with systemd-boot if used as the default.
- It doesn’t support an encrypted initramfs
- It breaks support for booting from a snapshot.
That being said, the discussions we have had about switching are only discussions at this point. Nothing has been decided. We may stay with grub or we may switch.
