Sadly I don't think it is that simple and to it properly would require
parsing if clauses in the grub file and also reading variables from the
grubenv file.
I do however have an idea which might work which is to ignore anything in
if clauses, read the grubenv file (which I now have a hacky way of doing)
and treating the value of next_entry or saved_entry as the setting for
the default kernel to pick. If I finish a patch that does this I will post
it on the list, but I very much doubt it will be of commitable quality.
