Gary,
This is a reasonable idea, but it exposes an internal variable that might change in the future, so am I hesitant to take this.

Without it, the only way to change the kernel command line is by editing the script, which doesn't seem very friendly.
Would you feel better if it were a special variable, just for this purpose, which is by default empty? I was just using the infrastructure that was already in place.
Thanks

Hi Gary,
I believe this is being tracked with bug #1019:
http://bugzilla.pokylinux.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1019
I do not have an ETA on this except for "before 1.1". Your workaround could be used in the meantime.
I haven't given any thought to creating an environment variable "API" to the script, so I'm not comfortable taking the patch currently.
As a temporary workaround, you could use the patch locally.
