Touch devices which use grub (like wetab) need touch support so you can select the entries without an external keyboard. |

Might probably ask GNOME folks for an on-screen keyboard or even Professor himself, maybe GRUB3 will be a microkernel bootloader supporting shared libraries then.</>
I'd argue that one should carry out an experiment in getting through the bootloader with an external keyboard and then unplugging it to understand whether it's really a showstopper.
