Oops, sorry, on these days I'm reading lots of comments about systemd on 
the IT press, so my brain directly drove me to that point.

Mmm, I was not aware of that change. Wheezy still has "util-linux" 2.19, 
and I boot directly into GNOME so I wouldn't even noticed the change :-)

But now you say, I will find that new feature very useful for my servers, 
I always have to manually "clear" the screen for the "curious eyes" and 
having the job automatically done will be great. Anyway, I hope this is a 
user configurable setting...
