Yep, rpm-ostree and bootupd (https://github.com/coreos/bootupd/) that are used by Fedora CoreOS are similar.

But, trying to change the traditional RPM path seems quite tricky to do safely without having a window where the grub binaries are deleted from `/boot` e.g.  And we've conditioned people to the idea that `yum update` will also update grub for EFI systems.
