Agree with that 100%. I had the problem on my system when applications started 
with no input/output filesystems mounted.
This default will break many systems. This cannot be the default.

up. After a couple of minutes it was still doing that. So I pulled the
plug on my laptop and fired it up again. I removed the splash and quiet
option from grub and booted. I then saw fsck was running.

Agree with that too. Had the OS misbehaviour too but guessed correctly that the 
filesystems are being checked.
Some indication for the FS checking should be added

boot process isn't paused while fsck runs on partition: boot process is 
completed with fsck running in the background preventing partition from mounting
