To summarize what we can do, and what I might implement soon(tm):
Show a graphic in 320x200x256 if console is a VGA (or above).
You can toggle between that graphic and normal text with
a key sequence (to be settled upon).
If there is to be animation of sorts, it will be VERY simple
(like the color cycling MS uses, or a status bar).
This can be added without much more overhead than the graphics
image (gif might even be overkill here). All other functionality
is there in syscons.
It funny though how feelings about this differs though, but if
we have it you can use it, or you can let it be, allright ??

So much code to hack -- so little time.
