I mostly agree besides for the default. I think we all agree that the
delayed start of the console is the better option for beginners while
a lot of karaf developers like the console that starts directly.
For this reason I think we should have the delayed start as default for
two reasons:
1. We are only a handfull of developers while there are thousands of
users and most are beginners or at least do not have a deep
understanding of karaf.
2. The delayed start is a nice out of the box experience for people who
start karaf for the first time. Especially the beginners will not find
the option to turn this on easily

I've read a lot of interesting opinions and I'd like to share mine:
i) The Karaf shell should start asap, unless explicitly configured. The
enter thing is nice but should be optional imho.
ii) Determining when Karaf is started is one thing, determining when an
application is started is another.
iii) A log entry that says Karaf has started sounds enough, we can
optionally provide that info through the info command.
iv) Different users have different needs on what started means. To cover
all cases we could allow the user to use a configuration file that will
contain requirements (package, service etc) and have everyone configure it
however he wishes.
