Yes, it certainly does.

Noone has spent time on solving the problem so far. Distributing and
using some trust anchors is difficult without adding many dependencies
to the build process.

Some people work with coreboot on Windows, making things even more
complicated.

I would like to see individual downloaded files to be verified, as
opposed to only a server certificate check.
