It's not kernel rendered graphics, the kernel just sets the graphics mode and then a small userspace application can provide a simple progress bar. The userspace application will start very early in the boot process and replace RHGB, so we still avoid starting 2 X servers with this approach. The transition from the userspace application to the X server will be smooth, for example, a cross fade, and in particular, no mode switches.
Isn't the small userspace app you're describing here very similar to Splashy [1]?
