… and dealing with side-cars. And there's no nice way to choosing one of multiple cmdline choices in the boot menu.
I decided to do something about this now. here's a WIP PR:
https://github.com/systemd/systemd/pull/33512 – it allows baking multiple alternative kernel command lines into a UKI, and the idea is that the boot menu then offers all of them to the user, synthesizing multiple boot menu entries from a single UKI.
It's a reasonable simple approach.
