This can allow for the local installation to sign the kernel and the initrd, so the boot chain can be verified until after the uefi. Currently, the initrd can be modified by attackers, so even if the / partition is encrypted, the systems data can be read on the next boot. If the kernel image, which includes the command line, and the initrd, is signed  then it is harder to comprimise the system. The system can still be comprimised if the uefi is modified.

What about proprietary NVIDIA drivers?
