I wanted to wait for this until the text console has a cursor. The missing cursor is a annoying while editing kernel command lines in grub. OTOH we subject the KDE/GNOME users to this anyway. Advantage of the text console is the larger font on laptop displays (probably not the primary use for the server image, possibly for the minimal image if that's used as basis for a different desktop spin).
Consistent behavior across all images is good thing though. For the desktop images we've shortened the timeout to 1 second.

Right, I didn't even realize that there was no cursor while editing the
grub menu. I'm with you all the way, let's wait until the text console has
a cursor before implementing this PR.
IIRC this cursor PR was written ages ago -- but never made its way
upstream (from what I hear it's a pretty daunting task). No rush man, take
as much time as you need....when it's ready -- it's ready.
I'm just in the midst of preparing a f40 image and am going through all the
PRs that have been already been submitted.
