Technically, we do. The python code behind the grub_setup.py checkpoint

as a position variable for people not necessarily versed in python
development may not understand what a negative value means without a lot
of extraneous comments in the manifest.
Wouldn't extraneous comments in the manifest be preferable to
hard-coding handling of accessibility entries?

As it was explained to me by Karen, the accessibility entries need to be
in the grub menu. Since the manifest represents options the user can
specify (or not specify), it didn't make sense to put them in the
manifest in the first place.
If I'm wrong about the entries needing to be in the menu, we can
relocate the entries back to the manifest with negative indexes and a
comment. Dave? Can you clarify for me?
That would be a policy of the Solaris product, but might not be the case
for other products built with DC, so I'd suggest the manifest is preferred.
