The NixOS module system now supports freeform modules as a mix between <literal>types.attrsOf</literal> and <literal>types.submodule</literal>. These allow you to explicitly declare a subset of options while still permitting definitions without an associated option. See <xref linkend='sec-freeform-modules'/> for how to use them.

The GRUB module gained support for basic password protection, which
allows to restrict non-default entries in the boot menu to one or more
users. The users and passwords are defined via the option
<option>boot.loader.grub.users</option>.
Note: Password support is only avaiable in GRUB version 2.
