It's probably to late to do that for jessie unless there is some major breakage caused by that for UEFI systems (which I don't know, not being familiar with UEFI). We'd also have to check, if shipping systemd-efi-boot-generator has other side-effects. A quick glance at its sources suggests it generates a mount unit for /boot and I don't know how that would interfere with the UEFI/boot loader integration in Debian. In any case, it's probably good to have some input from our UEFI experts, so CCed Steve.
