Thanks Steve, I've updated the description with the note I'd like to see in Natty's release notes.

The PID file has not been written at this point, so the init script won't work properly until the password is provided or apache is killed manually. In ubuntu 10.04, when apache is started by upstart, it cannot read input from the the console. You must login, kill it manually, then start apache.
