Hmm, one additional thing to note is that when /boot/grub/grub.cfg is generated, each "linux" line created there gets an additional copy of the keywords. That is, if I run "dpkg-reconfigured grub-pc" and strip the "Linux default command line" prompt down to just "nomdmonddf nomdmonisw" and then let it re-install grub, I'm left with /etc/default/grub containing just
  GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX_DEFAULT="nomdmonddf nomdmonisw"
... but the "linux" lines in grub.cfg look like:
        linux /boot/vmlinuz-3.13.0-32-generic root=UUID=[...ID...] ro nomdmonddf nomdmonisw nomdmonddf nomdmonisw

That makes me think that the intent of the dmraid2mdadm.cfg file is to add the keywords to the grub.cfg lines, but not to actually change the GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX_DEFAULT value in /etc/default/grub. Is there a proper way to do the former using a default/grub.d/ file without having the side-effect of changing the default/grub file on grub-pc package reconfiguration, too?
