Comment(by geofft):
I don't think you want GRUB_DEFAULT=saved, actually. That risks people
booting into some other kernel (recovery kernel, old kernel, memtest) and
the machine always booting into that kernel; see #968 and LP:436936 for
issues we've run into with this.
You only need GRUB_DEFAULT=saved for grub-reboot, and we can just add the
kernel we want to boot to a fixed position, e.g., the first one and avoid
grub-reboot entirely.
