This is a reasonable concern.

I'm not keen on adding this across the board--it's another user hiccup in a process that we already hear is onerous, and it will keep the browser from spinning up, which still can take time with limited system resources.

However, given https://dev.launchpad.net/LEP/DesktopWideLaunchpadIntegration , the keypress would only happen once, so you could argue that it's fine.

We could maybe require the keypress only for the console with something like ``if not (os.environ.get("DISPLAY") or sys.platform[:3] == "win")``. Maybe that's too much sniffing, and unnecessary.
