Comment 3 for bug 1652332

Thanks for the suggestion. However, we very deliberately don't do it the way you suggest, because it would mean the boot loader would too easily be broken by perfectly legitimate internal rearrangements performed by the file system. For example, a file system might quite reasonably move the physical locations of files during fsck, and we don't want that kind of thing to require updating the parts of the boot loader in the MBR. A dedicated partition is much more robust.
