Went through pve update today and had a message saying

Removable bootloader found at '/boot/efi/EFI/BOOT/BOOTX64.efi', but GRUB packages not set up to update it! Run the following command:

echo 'grub-efi-amd64 grub2/force_efi_extra_removable boolean true' | debconf-set-selections -v -u

Then reinstall GRUB with 'apt install --reinstall grub-efi-amd64'

To anyone facing this message: don’t forget! See here in the Proxmox forums

Yikes.

Thanks for posting that.

Should I run these commands just in case, I wonder? I'm not sure if I've applied this particular update, but I haven't rebooted in a little bit.

Edit: I hadn't applied this particular update yet. Thanks to this post I was able to pay attention (I usually don't pay attention) and ran the supplied commands.

Sounds like quite an important message to make sure the user is aware of
