Awesome! Pushed as e0b2e93005188ab4d6c7413a27832ba2fb7388e8.

Yes, the serial-unit (aka COM port) and serial-speed seem generically
useful on their own, as long you take care to handle the different
numbering between GRUB's serial-unit (zero indexed) and the COM port
numbering (indexed from 1).
The terminal inputs and outputs are generic only at the highest level.
At least, the choice between a graphical and text / curses interface
seeems universal. But of course other bootloader implementations will
support their own set of interfaces, and they may require extra
configuration.
