This means that if you don't care about having an image in the
background of your system consoles and all you really want is a progress
bar and a nice picture while (re-)booting the system, you can just use
splashutils and skip everything related to fbsplash, thus making
gensplash a 100% userspace solution. No kernel patches are required in
this case.

I think Debian needs something like Splashutils or Splashy..
