The Android recoveries scene is *wild*, man. It's a full blown operating system complete with a file manager that boots up before your full phone does. All it's missing is a web browser (and I guess texting/calling support).

It would be cool to have a similar EFI recovery system; keyboard, mouse, boot management, Grub fixing, and yes a graphical file manager. All you get instead are lousy OEM recoveries, although they're a good start.
