Amen, brother! ;-) People like me (probably you too) who have to support computers for wives, siblings, children, friends, homeless people, etc. know this well. That's why in an earlier post I suggested throwing the details out to a place where most people won't see them, but they would be easily available to us when they call for help....by just punching <alt><ctl>F5 or something. Using dmesg is OK, but it implies that you finished the boot well enough to look at it...
Sounds like a fantastic idea to me. Pity I don't have the foggiest clue of how to present this as a suggestion or an RFE (if so, against what package?). But if you can find a way, this really would be good for all of us!
