Comment(by PaulFertser):

 I don't agree here, Bill.

 You know how many vibes you feel when everything is working like you want
 to, so you'll notice any abnormal situation by counting vibes. After the
 kernel is booted (you say that you can see backlight in certain
 conditions, but you know that the kernel is booted anyway, by feeling
 proper number of vibes), it's up to the kernel, then to the userspace to
 show anything on screen.

 It's doesn't depend on bootloader. If you want messages, enable them in
 your append-GTA02 file and have the feedback on the price of slower boot.
