"Taking out the graphical booting nonsense" is precisely the reason you are
affected by this bug.

There are no open bug reports about such an issue.

You always have access to this information by pressing 'Esc' to toggle the
details plugin.

No, I 100% disagree.  This bug report is relevant because the server
install, by request of the server team, uses the plymouth details plugin by
default instead of a splash screen.  *Desktop* users who have gone out of
their way to modify the boot experience have made their own bed, and
accomodating such deviations from the defaults is not a priority.
