Summary KIWI: Wrong GRUB default entry when booting snapshot Wrong GRUB default entry when booting snapshot in our KIWI images

Comment # 1 on bug 1159205 from
Digging deeper into the problem I'm meanwhile not convinced that this should be
resolved in KIWI any more.

GRUB already contains
"grub2-btrfs-08-workaround-snapshot-menu-default-entry.patch", which is
supposed to solve exactly this problem: It it supposed to set the default entry
to the next entry if the help text is shown. Unfortunately the menu entry
title, originally introduced in "grub2-btrfs-05-grub2-mkconfig.patch", is later
changed by "grub2-btrfs-help-on-snapper-rollback.patch" - and the code is doing
a string comparison against the old string.

The obvious fix would be to change use the new string in the GRUB patch, but
maybe we could be using a better mechanism than string comparison? (Would
setting a certain class or id for the menuentry work?)
