4) KMS seems cool, but it doesn't work on my card, so it falls back to
a lame progress bar on the bottom of the screen. Can we be a little

Wait, is this the boot time "plymouth" stuff you are talking about?
All I've ever seen on any system was a lame progress bar (3 colors,
but still lame). I've really wondered what all the plymouth hoopla
was about. It can sometimes do more than a progress bar? (Not that
I care much, one of the first things I always do is remove the rhgb
option so I can actually see information on the screen if something
goes wrong).
