Boot with 'quiet'.

gdm/xdm/kdm use a different X server instance.

> 3. Now that there is a nice looking boot up process, what about a nice shutdown process? Are there any plans to make the shutdown/reboot look as nice as the graphical boot up? Would anybody else be interested in something like this?

It's probably better to just speed up shutdown; there's some
obvious things to do here that we'll probably do for the next
cycle. (Top of the list is just not shutting down most services;
let init sort them out.)
