I'm not attached to the "timeout 0" at all, and a "press any key..."
message from grub is certainly more useful than most of the other text
that appears on screen during boot... The thing we care about is
avoiding unnecessary mode switches and ugly transitions in the boot
sequence; for which it might be enough to not have grub show an image.
