There's no guidelines for EFI stuff in Fedora because nobody expected anyone to
do more than shim+grub. The only reason I know (outside of the RH bootloader
people) how all this works is because I spent two years doing research on the
whole thing.

This split makes it possible for multiple EFI variants to be installed at once
(e.g. ia32 + x64, etc.).

Sure, I'm fine with that. It's inconsistent with the others, but meh...
