This bug was still a problem long after UUIDs started being used (before
Karmic). For a serious bug to exist for 4.5 years and then be marked
invalid based on an assumption doesn't indicate a very good respect for
the average user's ability to have a bootable system. You can see from
the comment above that there are problems in the 2009/10 releases as
well. Additionally, one of the parts of this bug is that the second disk
is chosen, and the MBR is written on the first disk. Unless the disk ID
changes during the installer's progress, this would not be solved by
UUIDs.
** Changed in: grub-installer (Ubuntu)
Status: Invalid => Confirmed
