This bug has been diagnosed now, and is in progress - the problem is
that plymouth quit --retain-splash now works as designed, but this is
something kdm isn't expecting.
On the plymouth side, Scott has committed to dropping the --retain-
splash argument when plymouth is stopped by kdm, after which kdm should
start smoothly, but not flicker-free. For release, we would still want
to get kdm to interact directly with plymouth the way gdm does, for a
smooth transition to X.
