Thank you for the extra information.

The full-system encryption linked in the OP solves the part about /boot being accessed, which is a good thing.

That leaves only three parts to be solved.

1. The error with Grub, which has been reported:
https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/grub2/+bug/1062623

2. As you rightly say, the need to properly sign the Ubuntu kernel and initrd files. I think that this should be raised as a bug report if Ubuntu is to be taken seriously in corporate, government and other fields. So, on that note, how specifically should this bug be raised? I'll be happy to raise it if I know the specifics of what needs to be reported. Alternatively, if you know the details, perhaps you could please raise it and post the link here?

3. Implementing this process in the standard Ubuntu installer, which is what this bug request is about.
