I just tried the following

a/ copied /usr/share/plymouth/themes/ubuntu-logo/ from a Ubuntu yakkety
installation into my Debian sid system
b/ plymouth-set-default-theme ubuntu-logo
c/ update-initramfs -u

Upon reboot, I get the Ubuntu plymouth splash screen and progress
information seems to work nicely (I get the msg that fsck is running for
1 Disk and the percentage done). I can successfully cancel the fsck
process with CTRL+C

So it looks like systemd and plymouth provide everything that's needed
and it's a theme issue.
