One experiment done I pulled the power on my Touch ,when it was "off"
with my off screensaver who is black screen .

Ok when power returned , it started up with the standard menu as you
described .

But due to previus experience I did not interact or Touched anything at
all after some minutes or something it magically returned to it it's 
screen saver ! The key here is to actually not do anything with it .

The server was running in the background it may have seized controlled
and returned the player to what it should have been .

But as you know this product is abandoned years ago and maintanance is
done by a very small crew and enthusiast , so one can not really expect
anything just be gratefull if someone fixes anything .
You did know that the product is officially discontinued ? Or did you
miss that .

For a comunity developer the screensaver and power states are probably
all work and no fun , and probably very complex too.
I think it's historical the old SB player where very slim and basically
the servers sock puppet so they could not do anything without the server
( the server quite literarily moved the pixels on the screen ) . Part of
that model ,not always the rigth parts is preserved in the later
products who could act more autonomously in theory but that's not done .
