1) boot to grub
2) press e (assuming you are on your default kernel entry)
3) press Down a few times until you are on the line starting linux
4) press End

Result: cursor is wpositioned somewhere in the middle of the line and
editing no longer happens at the cursor. The editor is then broken until
closed and open again.
