I guess GRUB could chainload this EFI program. The EFI program looks for the 
"Windows" boot entry in NVRAM and sets it as bootnext, then reboots the system.

Of course this EFI binary would need to be signed with an appropriate Fedora CA 
for UEFI Secure Boot.

I don't know if making this a standlone EFI program really accelerates getting 
it ready to deploy, compared to just making it  a GRUB module.
