Dear M.:

Forgive me if I'm a bit dense, but I don't think I've heard of that 
before. How is it done?

Incidentally, the current behavior of the splash screen is as follows:

It comes up with no keyboard lock, but also no input-capable fields (and 
we have no plans to add any).

Without terminal-level typeahead: if a user presses a non-AID key, it 
causes the usual terminal error, which goes away when the next screen 
comes up, while if the user presses an AID key, the keyboard locks, but 
the AID key is ignored.

With terminal-level typeahead: any key (AID or non-AID) the user presses 
gets processed normally when the next screen comes up.

Snippets sometime after lunch.
