I have included  a link to the mokutil [5] changes I have made to support 
this new functionality.  The shim changes have now been accepted
upstream [6].

Does shim have the necessary features in a release?
Hi!

It has been accepted in the upstream shim. If you are looking
for a distribution having rolled out a shim with this feature (so signed
by MSF) I fear that distributions are not that fast with shim releases.
         ~~~

Should that be MS, or what does MSF mean?
Microsoft :-)
Correct, I’ll fix that in the next round.

Also these:
https://github.com/rhboot/shim/pulls
https://github.com/rhboot/shim/issues

do mean some extra work would need to go in before an official
release is cut.

Hope this helps?
Yes. I'll hold with this up until there is an official release. Thank you.
Not sure I understand - but what are the concerns you have with shim
code that has been accepted?
Maybe my concern is that none of the patches have a tested-by?

Probably would be easier to get a test coverage, e.g. for people like
me who do not even know how to self-compile Shim, how to setup user
space using the product and so forth.
       ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

for the end product
<nods> That makes total sense. Thanks for the explanation, let me double
check whether

https://github.com/rhboot/shim/blob/main/BUILDING

is still correct.
Those are the steps I use for building.   I then move over mmx64.efi and  
shimx64.efi to the ESP.  I can add the shim build/install instructions to the next
cover letter If you think that would be appropriate.
