Details:

If one wants to use grub-editenv, one needs to figure out which file is used
to save and load the environment. This information is not easily
available--not in help load_env, nor anywhere. This information should be
available in the docs, but also grub-editenv should have the same default as
load_env to alleviate the need for this piece of documentation in the first
place.

Follow-up Comment #1, bug #27874 (project grub):

grub-editenv defaults now to /boot/grub/editenv too and it prints that out
with --help.
Unfortunately this was commited after the 1.97 release was made.

I'm not sure about changing the help output for load_env
There it's actually $prefix/grubenv
