Well, reading the comments, the feature actually requested is for a flicker-
free boot sequence, and that is something I can agree with, I certainly don't 
have a problem with that.

I just think we may be leaving regular users behind for ideological reasons 
when we say that users of the only properly working nvidia driver can forget 
support, they'll have to take what they get.

I think it should be possible to detect when there is a kms capable driver, 
and use plymouth then, and fall back to bootsplash/splashy/whatever to provide 
a nice graphical boot sequence for everyone. I don't object to plymouth, I 
object to dropping the standard bootsplash by default
