Try looking at the keybindings section in mythweb. You can set jump
points in there but i'm not sure if there's one to jump to the main
menu.

I mapped asome of the imon pad buttons (mytv, myphotos, mymusic etc)
to use keypress combinations that weren't already being used by myth
then just configured those in my lircrc.
