I looked at rEFInd and expected to use it, but Grub seems to be working okay so far, and I like the extra information it puts into its (text) menu.
Based on what I've read about MATE it seems to be lighter weight and more likely to play well with Xmonad as a window manager, but it may be a while before things settle out.
