It's an assumption there will be an option to disable it. This is up to the 
firmware implementation, not the spec. Arguably that is a flaw in the ratified 
spec. But the place for it now is, ironically, in the Windows 8 Logo Program.

You'd still find hardware that does not participate in that program, which then 
aren't bound to supply hardware allowing the disabling of Secure Boot. Apple 
will be one such company that falls under this.
