This is a significant peeve of mine. The need to explicitly specify resolution in boot managers is annoying for both laptops and machines that aren’t always used with the same monitor, because no matter what it’s going to end up in fallback with an ugly stretched resolution some portion of the time, rendering beautification with themes somewhat moot.
This limit made sense 20+ years ago but today it feels highly anachronistic, kind of like finding a corded rotary phone mounted on a wall in the kitchen of an otherwise cutting edge home. Surely it’s something that could be fixed?
