Whatever we did think back then, it all is moot as long as some UEFI
vendors do funky crap or the spec has documentation holes.

So we need a reality check and just do exactly what the OS does with
which UEFI writers are testing with. Be it windoze, be it some open
firmware testing tool or whatever. Provided there's even a tool with
which UEFI validation is done and it is used by everybody...
