Of course it does. Otherwise the Debian installer would not boot in EFI 
mode.

Actually you can. The Debian installer can boot either in legacy BIOS or 
native EFI mode. So does a Debian system when installed properly.

External PS/2 devices are becoming rare these days.
I have seen this kind of behaviour on a laptop which with integrated 
PS/2 keyboard and touchpad. The PS/2 controller required an additional
