Public bug reported: Binary package hint: grub2
It would be desirable to have grub2 not switch to text mode when it boots a kernel with mode setting. The idea would be for grub2 to offer a graphical boot menu. When Ubuntu is booted, the grub menu disappears and the booting progress bar appears seamlessly without the background changing or any flickering. Then the same would occur to switch to gdm. This may be a pipe dream in which case please explain and mark wontfix. I do think this would be an area of polish that would rival OSX.
