Can you use *"Desktop"* instead and port this change over to upstream too?

Please file a bug upstream about this.

Can you port relevant changes to upstream fedora-kiwi-descriptions too?

I've already created https://github.com/OSInside/kiwi/issues/2790

Which changes do you want to be ported over to fedora-kiwi-descriptions? All including the forceful deletion of the grub2 modules? That one is architecture specific.
Based on grep -r menu_auto_hide /etc/anaconda I suspect if [[ "$kiwi_profiles" == *"-Desktop"* ]]; is not sufficient in fedora-kiwi-descriptions either.

Yeah, the deleting of the grub2 modules should be guarded by an archful conditional, we have an example of this in config.sh.

To be honest, I'd probably do auto-hide by default for all variants except Server.

I've submitted a fix for the grub2 issue: https://github.com/OSInside/kiwi/pull/2791

I saw. I'll skip the module cleanup change there (and probably here as well).

I've submitted the menu_auto_hide change and have the bls=true change queued locally. I realized too late that those too changes conflict.

I tested this with a locally built kde image and it works mostly as expected. The grub menu is shown on the first boot after the install. I'm thinking of adding boot_success=1 to the grubenv as well to avoid this.

That would make sense to do.

I've dropped the grub2 module removal as that will be fixed by kiwi-10.2.18. This now sets boot_success=1 in the grubenv to avoid displaying the grub menu on first boot.
