Last I remember from squeeze (didn't check wheezy too much), plymouth was quite buggy/broken, and has been RC buggy for a long while (hello libdrm-nouveau); I'm not sure it's a good idea to install it by default, but I'm happy to take opinions. Cc-ing debian-x@ since ISTR some "fun" on the X side when plymouth was involved. Mraw, KiBi.
