Right, I like this much more.  I think it's quite broken that anaconda forced
/boot/efi .

I thouht about this, but unfortunately, /boot/efi is a VFAT partition, so
symlinks are out.

Understood, thanks!  I'll work around it for now on this laptop.  I have
another running Arch, with just /boot as the ESP, and things are much simpler.
