Thanks.

I doubt that we'll take the gfxboot approach, but grub2 has its own
graphics support and so I expect that we'll eventually get something
based on that (although we will still be aiming to have a silent boot
loader by default). I much prefer the idea of an upstream-supported
solution here.

Even if we weren't going to do it, I'd rather leave this bug open;
enough people have been asking for it that, if I closed it, somebody
would just file it again anyway. :-)
