IMO this is not a target for now. The KMS currently is not integrated with syscons at all, so startup of a KMS driver causes blank screen and lost console. The vidconsole is functional, but it has no use for the user who cannot see the output. This is the state of i915 driver, which does not provide a files glue for static linking into the kernel, for the described reason. Solving integration issues with syscons is rather pointless, both due to the baroque interface of the syscons, and due to the supposed replacement of syscons, available in the base/user/ed/newcons.
