I have not seen anybody complaining on the look of the Server Edition 
boot process either.  Was that discussed at a UDS, or something?  If so, 
I must have missed the blueprint.

Just because of the potential for regressions and unforeseen problems, I 
think it is a terrible idea to introduce that feature in an LTS cycle. 
I hope it get backed out before release.
