Hi!

I use grub with secure-boot enabled, and grub enforces signature
checks for files it loads. I actually went through a not-so-short
trial-and-error process signing all the files correctly. However, if I
don't enable user authentication for grub, some malicious user can
simply press 'e' and add 'set check_signatures=no'.
So I went on to setup authentication of a grub user. However, with
users present, any action needs authentication, even just booting with
an existing entry. I believe it makes sense to have an option that
sets every entry to unrestricted, so secure-boot users won't need to
hack into scripts shipped by distributions.

Thank you!
