I did before I posted. grub-mkconfig seems to have been designed around the (false) assumption that one would only ever want a single terminal interface rather than the option to choose at boot time, and thus only allows either console or serial but not both. I believe GRUB_TIMEOUT has nothing to do with the --timeout option of the terminal module.
