Just out of curiosity, how exactly would this be useful?  A blind user
couldn't really use the menu system anyway, s/he would have to be given
a sequence of key presses to perform (hotkeys, probably) which get the
OS booted and ready to drive the Braille devices (for example).  And if
s/he gets lost, pressing the reset button should work just fine.
