 Would something like this be good enough?
 
  - use 0 to drop to the boot prompt
  - use a new command (like "showconfig" or whatever) to dump the full boot.cfg
    file
  - use a new command (like "paste 1") to copy the last part (after the ":")
    of menu item 1 into the edit/line buffer
 
 Also I always wondered if we have a way to return from the boot prompt
 to the menu display.
