I wonder too, and especially how this benefit relates to the effort I have to make in order to make it happen.
To tell the truth, I feel I spent already too much time in this project. The start up process is certainly not perfect (neither are the other scripts), but I think it does its main purpose.
And what might be the worst case with a new FW update? That the device gets unresponsive and the user has to factory reset it and, if he still intends to use the start menu, wait for an updated version of it. And that the device will become totally unresponsive will only happen if the changes in the new FW are so heavy that nickel AND the start menu fail to work. And how likely is this?
Therefore, I will keep your solution in mind, but I will not pursue it right now. Thank you!
