So... I don't know plymouth.
What does it do better than bootsplash?
From the thread, I can guess it integrates better with systemd and functions as a password agent for it... right? I think that's a good point in itself.
What else? People will need to know why it's worth replacing before commenting.
PS: I really don't care if we have only one theme, as long as I can plug my own theme rather easily (ie: as easy as it would be with upstream).
PS2: do consider the nvidia-binary case. Lots of users, not the least of which is me. I could probably do some testing, not sure I can install a whole 12.1 in any nvidia machine of mine, but I can install plymouth on an 11.4 I have with a very strange nvidia+intel combo that makes bootsplash intermittently fail, and I might be able to burn some live dvds and test on some other hardware.
