Not yet ... I'm still working on writing the code that constructs the
time based authentication bundle for the variables. When I have it, it
will appear in my git repository (and I'll probably send a note to the
linux-efi list):

Constructing time based authentication bundles is complex ... are you
sure you have the code right? error 26 means the platform doesn't think
the authentication is correct.
