Another major bug is that GRUB does not load fonts used by themes automatically.
update-grub or grub-mkconfig should parse the theme configuration file
(usually theme.txt) referanced by /etc/default/grub and load fonts in
the directory (and sub-directories) of the theme file.
Or, better still, fonts could be installed to /usr/share/grub/fonts,
/boot/grub/fonts or /boot/grub/fonts (depending on the directory
choosen by GRUB developers, not theme developers/users) and use that
as a standard directory to store fonts for autoload if called by the
choosen theme during the process of running update-grub or
grub-mkconfig.
Therefore, there is no neccisessity to place scripts into /etc/grub.d/
just to have GRUB include fonts.
