I will respond more strongly that Ard did: I have seen functionality like this implemented in publicly available systems - laptops, desktops. Without exception, they end up in bug reports saying "my system refuses to boot after installation/upgrade". Without exception, they add to existing negative perceptions of UEFI in general in certain market spaces. Presumably this is trying to address a real problem you have faced. Please bring this issue to the table for discussion, so that we can agree on an appropriate way of resolving it. Regardless, this code will not be included in 18.02. / Leif
