Title:
  passwords are awkward to use with grub-mkconfig

Status in “grub2” package in Ubuntu:
  Triaged

Bug description:
  Binary package hint: grub2

  grub2 does not currently have support for security features, such as
  the "password" and "lock" commands.

  This is required in corporate environments, and would be a regression.
