So the patch definitely seems to work for boot entries created within
the OS.

A remaining thing to consider is the Shim fallback loader and
bootARCH.csv that we provide for it to create boot entries when none
exists.

Tagging shim-signed as well because it is the package responsible for
providing BOOTARCH.CSV

Title:
  UEFI boot entry named 'ubuntu' should be called 'Ubuntu'

Status in grub2 package in Ubuntu:
  New
Status in shim-signed package in Ubuntu:
  New

Bug description:
  Currently, when grub creates the UEFI boot entry it gives it the name
  'ubuntu'.

  I have 28 boot entries on my laptop, and this is the only one starting
  with a lowercase letter.

  Ubuntu is a proper name; the boot entry should be called 'Ubuntu'.

  (Care should be taken when fixing this to ensure that on upgrade we
  don't end up with both 'ubuntu' and 'Ubuntu' boot entries.)
