The early startup menu runs under exec, not ppcboot. Remember, there's gonna be a bunch of machines sold _without_ AmigaOS as well. So moving that to ppcboot might not be that cool for everyone. What has changed is that instead of the screen going black - dark grey - light grey- white before showing a disk and a hand like in the old days (sadly I can't remember if it does anything like that in 2.x and upwards...) it now displays output from vga card init followed by output from ide/usb/floppy scan and then proceed on to starting exec. Nothing here uses mouse, so I would suspect holding down both mouse buttons is still a good way of getting to the early startup menu :-D
