@benh: you meat to *only* boot signed stuff and not fall back to
disabling SB before booting an unsigned kernel?
That should be addressed by

I was busy working on our release, which took all my time.
And I'm not subscribed to debian-project.
My last work it at <https://salsa.debian.org/pmhahn/grub/tree/signing>.
In the week after the sprint I worked on GRUB2 and got it so far to have
the signed amd64 package - so at the time of writing the sprint report
GRUB2 was already ready.
I haven't yet found time to setup an UEFI-SB test environment to check
that everything works.
I haven't yet tested any other architecture != amd64.
@Colin: Please have a look at said repository above.
What I'm currently unsure about is that amd64 has those ia32 packages as
well - it should work but also untested.
My reading is that those are required for dual booting?
