By luck and 14 years of xorriso development. :))

Can i talk you into a second test ?
This time only disable the part in grub.cfg which evaluates the variable:

    if [ "$grub_platform" = "efi" ]; then
    menuentry 'Boot from next volume' {
            exit
    }

but leave the command in effect:

    grub_platform

The resulting behavior will be of interest when asking GRUB experts for an
explanation.

-------------------------------------------------------------------------

We still could need to know what wonder exactly gnome disks does for
Lucap.
Somehow the partition table of the ISO influences the ability of
command and/or variable evaluation to do its job in reasonable time.

The proposed xorriso runs will hopefully show what exactly lets
grub_platform or the evaluation of $grub_platform block boot progress.

-------------------------------------------------------------------------

When both open questions are answered, it will be time that Ubuntu ISO
production takes this case to one of the mailing lists about misbehaving
GRUB. Let's have a look into the archives.

Not much replies:
  https://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/bug-grub

Probably not the right audience:
  https://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/help-grub

Quite oriented to "[PATCH]"-work. But at least they discuss what is posted:
  https://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/grub-devel/
I am subscribed to grub-devel, because of grub-mkrescue. So i could serve
as curious bystander who wonders where command grub_platform is
implemented.

Have a nice day :)
