We have reached a point where boot security is important enough that
Windows is now only allowing their bootloader to be used. With bitlocker
enabled this is working exactly how it was designed so I'd change the
wording to require that grub2 doesn't prevent windows from continuing to
boot via their preferred method and leave it at that.

And while there may be a possible solution using BootNext, until someone
does the work and tests it there is no point in requiring grub2 to do
something it cannot do.
