Ah, I just had a quick look at the bootcamp application in the mac mini
firmware MM11.0055.B08. Although the function itself looks different, you
can still find the exact same list of 10 guids from offset 0xc20 to 0xcc0
of the file.

And as for instance the bootcamp application has the same guid on every
firmware, I think it's fairly safe to assume there is some kind of naming
consistency.
