I'm not sure when "menu" was added, but it wasn't always there.

Given that it is a test for a technical audience, I don't think it is
worth changing this.

I recommend you avoid directing them at the firmware self-test features

Certainly an XO-1.5 B2, and I've two of those, and they are affected by
the two problems you described.  We won't be fixing them.  But if you
need your XO-1.5 B2 replaced (e.g. because it won't let you use wireless
after suspend), talk to Adam.
