Right, I'd forgotten about this particular bug report (there were others ...). This has indeed been fixed as Charles describes.

gfxboot-theme-ubuntu (0.5.3) hardy; urgency=low

  * Rename "Start or install $PROJECT" to "Try $PROJECT without any change
    to your computer"; "Install in text mode" to "Install $PROJECT in text
    mode"; "Install to the hard disk" to "Install $PROJECT"; and "Memory
    test" to "Test memory". See
    https://wiki.ubuntu.com/HardyBootloaderReview for context.
  * Allow the boot parameters line to occupy the full width of the screen
    (LP: #27676) and handle redraws on language change better.
  * Allow menu options to use more horizontal space, and centre them on the
    screen.
  * Implement "label NAME", "append NAME", "replace NAME", and "applies
    NAME" options in gfxboot.cfg. These are used to implement a new Modes
    menu, which replaces the video menu on F4. The intent is that that this
    should reduce the bewildering array of top-level menu options, while
    still allowing the less usual options to be selected easily. Many
    strings have been changed accordingly.
  * Display a message at the bottom of the menu to indicate that alternative
    modes may be selected using F4.
  * Fix glitch in translate function that sometimes left the original string
    on the stack.
