Hi,

Indeed, because reading loader.rc.local is a little bit of a rabbit hole. We
could try to have some limited support by trying to process loader.rc.local=
 as
a series of loader commands, but the file is historically parsed as 4th so =
we
can't claim to completely support it.

The loader-independent way to do this is probably best done with the `exec`
loader.conf(5) variable. e.g.

exec=3D"gop set 0"
exec=3D"gop set 2"
...

but ideally we would have loader.conf(5) variables for these kinds of thing=
s to
trim down the interpreter-dependent things being done by a standard
sysadmin/user that isn't trying to modify core boot/menu behavior.
