I definitely wouldn't call the GRUB_DEVICE solution acceptable. Btrfs is still quite new and I don't think it makes sense to merge it hacks like this. I believe that this is a case where the bleeding edge users should need to build their own packages and maintain their own configuration. Trying to handle cases like changing UUIDs completely defeats the purpose of a hack which only exists because btrfs doesn't yet have a mechanism for identifying devices to user space. The solution you cite does look promising, although it would be nice if there were some actual code behind it.
