I confirm that installing the version of shim-signed in precise-proposed on a system that has grub installed will remove grub in favor of grub2-common.

The precise version of grub2-common does not contain the grub-install utility, so installing grub2-common will not cause the shim-signed package to successfully install the bootloader to /boot/efi/EFI/. It will however allow the package to be installed, avoiding upgrade failures.

For precise, users will still need to otherwise ensure that they have the correct bootloader package installed for their system.
