This is different from the way Fedora handles grub2 configuration when you add a kernel, as their method doesn't work with xen. However there is a risk that you will lose configuration options if the Fedora system hasn't set up grub2 correctly. This did happen while Fedora 16 was in beta as grub2 overwrote a configuration file when you updated it until they fixed it, but I am not sure if this is still a problem.
