This was a convenient debugging feature :)

Note that GRUB isn't here, so it isn't necessarily downloaded when you 
try to render the LFS book.

Then please adjust the console configurator - it mentioned at least one 
of the newly-added locales.

This is the only thing that guaranteed that GRUB is downloaded before 
the book is rendered. I think that it should be put back. Or, GRUB 
should be moved to the place where it belongs in the book.

Adjust the console configurator.

This comment should stay - the non-wide is optional in the book, so the 
LiveCD decision should be documented.

Yes, this was a deviation.

See http://wiki.linuxfromscratch.org/lfs/ticket/2076

What's the ultimate plan with this? Creating the network config from 
udev rules is beyond LFS.

Missing functionality in LFS, it may be a good idea to create a ticket.
