I don't think this is a bug; the effect of clearing the screen after successfully setting the background_color should, AIUI, be precisely to refresh the screen with the background color (as opposed to only using the background color when drawing more text to the screen).

Re: [Bug 1289809] Re: Grub theme: black screen with purple border
OK, I also thought that at first. But when I tried with the fix, the purple frame disappeared: - With timeout=0, the screen was purely black (good) - With timeout0, the background was purple under the menu (good) I'll check again.

Yep, after testing it again I can confirm the frame is drawn before the grub menu is presented (or when timeout=0).
