New Boot-Loader

Would also be cool to have an option to boot "something else" (like e.g.
memtest86).  Maybe a special directory with loadable binaries and a special menu
entry to select one of them.

Probably even better to have a mechanism for pluggable menu entries like a special
directory that would have .4th files each of which would represent one extra menu
option.  So instead of hacking system .4th files, one could easily extend main
menu with custom entries.

Just a dream...
