I don't plan to buy such a mainboard in the near future either. but in
general I would prefer to create our own keys and let the user import
those into the firmware. This way we would not depend on prebuild boot
loaders signed by Microsoft or anybody else. Security-wise this would
also be much saner.
But Thomas is right: this has to be implemented and tested by those who
own such hardware; which at this time we don't.
Greetings,
Pierre
