Sean,
Thanks for the feedback. As you say, this is a design concern in SecurityPkg today, and the improvement you are suggesting is welcomed, especially for systems that rely on EDK2 (and lack a commercial FW solution). Considering that this patch series is at v5, and has accumulated enough reviews since RFC/v1 was sent to the list in April/May, is it possible to proceed with the current revision, and consider the feedback you suggested in future improvements to SecurityPkg?
Thanks,
--Samer
