Problem with that is not so much linux, but that a KEK update has never happened before so there are chances that bios vendors messed up things

hardware is covered.

I received a KEK update for my laptop just yesterday via GNOME Software. Checking with 'fwupdmgr get-history' I can see the update description: "This updates the UEFI Signature Database (the "KEK") to the latest release from Microsoft, signed by LENOVO." Nice when things just work.

But it's clearly a Thinkpad-specific update, so this does no good for most of our users.
