If the bootloader defaults to something, it should be set to that default. So NACK to this approach (unless I missed something).In other words, if we don't have bootloader defined and decide to go with bhyveload, it means that we need to update XML accordingly?
I believe that if something is used and we have a field for that in the XML, then it should be visible there. That way the user has ad much information as possible.
This sounds like a reasonable thing to do, but probably we should agree on the UEFI boot case first. As it does not require the 2-step boot process with external loader, we should differentiate this case in order not to see bootloader when it's not needed.
I don't know what is the default now and how it works. If you want some sensible default to work without being in the XML, well, that's another option (I didn't understand it that way), but from my experience, that will bite you in the back later on. I was just commenting on the patch without knowing the history, so it might make sense to do what you say. I just didn't feel that's the best option based on the commit message.
