Yes the AUX to skip thing is not that useful, it's only reasonable if
you have one kernel in SD.  After that the LED and vib feedback just
aren't enough to have any confidence about what the hell is going on :-)

If you press it one time too many you'll end up in the memory test I think.

This can be done way better than a bootloader ever can with a chopped
down Linux kernel and tiny rootfs on the framebuffer / display and
touchpanel.
