Sure, but the first thing you see is that BIOS splash screen which is text mode only and which monitor it goes to is defined by the graphics card BIOS. I too have a UEFI system and this is how it works.

It isn't. UEFI shows you a graphical image. You have to go in and manually disable the splash scree (or whatever it's called) so see anything in text mode.
Either way, when I was talking about potential mouse cursor issues I obviously wasn't talking about the boot screen, but the actual UEFI menu.

the boot order on nvidia cards is
vga > dvi > hdmi > dp

In other words: boot using the oldest thing you can find attached. Morons.

Why? Is there a risk for me to have DP monitor plugged in that can't display images?

It would be nice if the driver software could configure the bios for port boot priority or even a switch

I doubt it's easy for drivers to reach into there, but it could an option in UEFI.
