Yes, a trigger is necessary, but it's still also necessary to do it on first
install. The symlink is there so that we don't have two copies of grub.efi that
can get out of sync.

It's perfectly valid to have a configuration file that allows arbitrary
configuration in a secure boot environment, but that configuration file should
be living on the same filesystem as grub.efi. /boot/grub2-efi isn't necessary
for that. Users may well prefer to have a grub.efi that trusts everything, and
I'm sure we'll be able to provide tools for them to do that, but it's not going
to be the default when run under a secure boot environment.

Theming data can live where. For simplicity's sake it's still going to be
easier to have it on the same filesystem as grub itself, but there's no hard
requirement for that.
