 On a security-disabled XO with Q2E18 firmware (and maybe earlier
 versions?), if you '''hold down''' the escape key (upper left corner)
 during power-on, then at the first 'ok' prompt your first keystroke will
 be ignored.  For example, if you type 'help', OFW will see only 'elp'.

 If you only briefly press the escape key during the countdown, then OFW
 will correctly see your first keystroke after the 'ok' prompt.

 This is only a very minor nuisance, in the 'polish' priority class.
