Hi Ray,

There could be usage of SimpleTextIn->ReadKeyStroke () in 
PlatformBootManagerWaitCallback () and PlatformBootManagerUnableToBoot (). The 
PlatformBootManagerLib instance introduced in MinPlatformPkg simply forwards 
those calls to a library instance of BoardBootManagerLib implemented in the 
board package so they will still be invoked at TPL_APPLICATION.

A specific use case that requires TPL_APPLICATION (the restriction is 
relatively minimal) has not been identified in the analysis of use cases that 
led to the event hook points introduced in PlatformBootManagerLib.

Thanks,
Michael
