Description

When first launching the server, it's hard to tell when startup is
complete. There are lots of pauses, and it's not clear whether there
will eventually be a "successful startup" message. This adds a bit of
uncertainty/confusion as you sit there and wonder whether it's done,
still going or broken. (It would actually be quite cool/unique to add
some sort of ascii progress bar like sftp and scp use.)
