it's as simply a matter of paying $99 once, no matter what your
submitted bootloader does, or doesn't do.

AIUI, that fee isn't to get your arbitrary boot loader signed, it's to *gain access* to the certification process. Presumably you still have to have your code audited to make sure that it does what it says it does and only what it says it does. Still, I'd be a lot happier if the certification were done by a neutral third-party instead of by a corporation with the anti-competitive reputation that MS has.
