I think we need to include the very real scenario where Ubuntu Server is used in a headless capacity. For example I have a dedicated server with GoDaddy and I have absolutely ZERO access to console. In truth, I rarely have access to console on pretty much all the server I admin.
If I reboot a system, and SSH is no longer available, then that server is DEAD to me. I do NOT have the luxury of walking up to console to investigate. I would like to have an option in Ubuntu to indicated that the server is headless and that it should NEVER, I mean NEVER pause during boot regardless of the problem. With a boot script that sends a notification email if something did go wrong at boot.
