My first reaction was that this sounded silly, at first thought it
seems you'd want it the other way around only, but, once I thought
about it, I realized that actually, this is a good idea.  This way,
you would get a normal default bootup, possibly without even seeing
anything if you didn't do anything, but, if you wanted to boot
differently than usual, you'd hold the shift key to get the menu.  I'd
like to second this idea because it could be kind of nice to see.
