This is a decent read.

Also you might want to try the page down first then page up keys to display the missing prompt (effectively wipes the plymouth splash on some generic 104 keyboards). A lot of this stuff is headed for obselescence because encryption can be handled by board chips now. I doubt these "bugs" will be considered serious in a year or two, and more than likely will be ignored and left to deprecate just expecting users to deploy workarounds.

For perfectionists there are very tedious system specific fixes for this, but they all basically have to be run all over again each time you update a kernel.

I doubt plymouth as we know it has much of a life span left. Grub on the other hand is going to be the go to in the future for grapical boot displays.
