Oh, fair point - so we can start usplash from the root filesystem if needed for fsck prompting? Does this work already today, and if not, is this converging on schedule for release?

In some cases, cryptsetup will be installed on systems that aren't using crypted root; so having cryptsetup ship a file under /etc/initramfs-tools/conf.d turning on usplash will cause usplash to be used in some initramfses where it's not needed (and possibly even some systems where no prompting is required). Is that acceptable, or do you have some other plan for how usplash will be selected?
