Thanks for your report.
For the GRUB_GEOMETRY variable you introduced I already sent a patch
upstream, though I didn't received yet a comment about this yet.
This was requested in #493106

For changing the default debian image, we have #495282 already.
So I really don't know what do with your report now, it's in between
these 2 reports.
