That is just the same mechanism as labels. Note however that you still

Except, they can duplicate. But no need to quarrel here !
In the end, a DHCP-like system might evolve; scanning any plugged drive,
reading by all means your labels, and offer to mount the partitions /
drives.

Now, you still need it running *not* on one of your drives; but on CF or so.
It is also high time, to remove grub from the installs and give it a
place in an extended BIOS,

God beware ! Intel's approach to 'trusted' hardware. I would not touch
it with a pair of pliers ! - But maybe FreeBIOS can support something
like that ?
