how much do you want to bet intel made Clover trail boards 'won't' support either disabling it nor adding your own keys?
I'll bet you a hundred bucks, how about that?
I say this because -- having followed the progress of Secure Boot for some time now -- I know that the Secure Boot requirements by Microsoft treat ARM and x86 very differently. The scenario you described applies only for ARM. In fact, for x86 Secure Boot-capable boards are *required* to provide a way to disable Secure Boot.
The Atom CPU in question is an x86 CPU. Ergo if boards with it are billed as certified for Windows 8, Secure Boot will not be able to prevent Linux from running.
