In my opinion in UNIX such a thing is called a "file name", so how about

    bootloader-configururation-file-name

?

> +            bootloader-configuration-file-procedure

How about

  bootloader-configuration-file-generator

Or

  bootloader-configuration-file-generation-procedure


?

> +            bootloader-configuration-install-procedure

How about

  bootloader-configuration-installer

or

  bootloader-configuration-installation-procedure 

?

I think it would be better to use the field accessor procedures.

Magical conversion? Could use a comment...

Remainder of the patch LGTM.
