Could it not be made even more lightweight and low impact if, instead of 
configurable, it used logic thusly:

        if exists splash.png {
                display splash.png
                for (oh 4 seconds :-) {
                        allow click out of loop
                }
        }

No config needed, just delete the splash. It coulld ship with a default 
one that has text that says what to do. Path for splash file, config for 
that, etc everything has overhead :-)
