- no kernel text at all is seen on startup
Any kernel text showing up with the current 'quiet' mode could be considered a bug :)

I'd rather just make the shutdown fast enough that no one cares. Keeping X running makes a few things difficult and it would be easier just to speed up the process, imho
- a minimal X server is used (maybe just skip that and make GTK use
the framebuffer) - right now startup time is increased somewhat because the nVidia drivers take ages to initialize
Unfortunately, framebuffers + accelerated X servers have a habit of triggering neat new bugs :( Even things as simple as vga16fb.
