Hey Brian, thanks for sharing. Is this an effort to drop the isolinux/syslinux
stack from the equation? 

In Fedora CoreOS we're using isolinux (for BIOS) and GRUB2 for UEFI for the ISO
image we deliver. We're not opposed to using GRUB2 for BIOS too (happy to in fact),
but we want to make sure things keep working.

Currently we use isohybrid [1] (also from syslinux package) to modify the ISO to be
able to be booted on a USB key. Would we be able to still get that functionality
without isohybrid from the syslinux package?
