You *could* do it, but it is bad idea. You don't want to patch printk.c, that driver printk could be done from interrupt (and you can't switch consoles at that point), you loose context, etc. What about doing the simple thing, maybe hack with CRs and be done with that?
If someone wants more eye candy, they have to patch their kernel with bootsplash. Pavel -- When do you have a heart between your knees?
