Agree.

But what do you think about the SecureBoot enum in the proxmox_sys crate?
Currently I have this:

#[derive(Clone, Copy)]
pub enum SecureBoot {
     /// SecureBoot is enabled
     Enabled,
     /// SecureBoot is disabled
     Disabled,
}
impl SecureBoot {
     pub fn query() -> SecureBoot {
         lazy_static::lazy_static!(
             static ref SECURE_BOOT: Mutex<Option<SecureBoot>> = 
Mutex::new(None);
         );

         let mut last = SECURE_BOOT.lock().unwrap();
         let value = last.or_else(|| {
             // Check if SecureBoot is enabled
             // Attention: this file is not seekable!
             // Spec: 
https://uefi.org/specs/UEFI/2.10/03_Boot_Manager.html?highlight=8be4d#globally-defined-variables
             let efivar = std::fs::File::open(
"/sys/firmware/efi/efivars/SecureBoot-8be4df61-93ca-11d2-aa0d-00e098032b8c",
             );
             if let Ok(mut file) = efivar {
                 let mut buf = [0; 5];
                 let Ok(_) = file.read_exact(&mut buf) else {
                         return Some(SecureBoot::Disabled);
                     };
                 if buf[4] == 1 {
                     Some(SecureBoot::Enabled)
                 } else {
                     Some(SecureBoot::Disabled)
                 }
             } else {
                 Some(SecureBoot::Disabled)
             }
         });
         *last = value;
         value.unwrap()
     }
}

Although we could make the function return a bool (then we'd have a 
free-standing function again), which would be simpler... (+ we convert 
it in pbs to a bool anyway)
One advantage of my approach is that we are more flexible, could add 
another option, rename them, etc...
