It's supported as long as you use Google's bootloader rather than a legacy one, but you're still stuck with either a 30-second boot delay or hitting ctrl+d and there's no way to install your own keys without disassembling the machine and physically disabling the write-protection on the firmware. It's certainly more hostile than any UEFI Secure Boot system I've found.
