Hi!

Yes.

search engine:
site:debian.org "/etc/default/grub.d"

packages content search:
https://packages.debian.org/search?searchon=contents&keywords=grub.d&mode=filename&suite=unstable&arch=any

Looks like we're the first ones to ship a /etc/default/grub.d snippet. I
guess the arbitrarily chosen /etc/default/grub.d/10_apparmor.cfg is
fine. It allows others to easily hook into it earlier or later.

If you wish I can start a discussion on the Debian grub maintainers
mailing list.

Done:
