So far, in practice, it seems like quite a lot of real-world UEFI implementations are making the UEFI boot manager menu quite inconvenient to access, unfortunately.
I'm not sure if Matt or anyone else has yet formed a definite opinion whether we should just be saying everyone should go through the UEFI boot manager, or trying to incorporate UEFI boot of other OSes into our own bootloader menus, with all the inevitable fun that would entail. I know for damn sure I haven't *tested* the latter approach much yet.
