Why?

I'm sorry but I disagree - this is the place.

Are you saying that drakboot will write the setting into /etc/default/grub ?

If so it can overwrite the value already there, what harm will this do?

What if a user installs the grub2 package without using drakboot.
How in that case can we supply a 10 second default without setting it in 
the configuration file?

I will revert this if absolutely necessary, but I really don't 
understand why you feel it is wrong.
