"A system in custom mode should allow you to delete all existing keys and replace them with your own. " -> this will not be guarenteed per manufacturer and I am assuming will become a "void your warranty" issue. Also this defeats the whole point of a secureboot system. If someone can remove keys and replace them without having access to the root key of the platform then this is a huge security risk.

I will not accept any third party key ownership on my system, be that Microsoft, Versign, Fedora or Linux. If I want secure boot, TPM or any other sort of keys they will be created and owned by me.

Fedora should be joining the fight to stop this foolishness rather than encouraging it.

Please put this to a vote.
