Yes, I checked the BTS before replying. I'm just not sure end users having troubles to boot are actually able to work around those issues and to report bugs. (I've at least seen people switch distro instead of figuring out what went wrong.)
That's of course a problem, but I think such issues could be identified and fixed before a release.
Yeah, and race conditions can be quite dramatic, since hanging instead of rebooting or failing to get an encrypted volume's passphrase are a big pain.

Waiting for the TC decision seems like a good idea. Opinions from the desktop environment maintainers could be helpful.
(Also, ISTR systemd might get some splashscreen features. Not sure if it's possibly obsoleting plymouth, or paving its way forward.)
