Until today I thought SPLASH was a distro thing...:/

I was trying minimal and got:

ERROR: Multiple .bb files are due to be built which each provide
virtual/psplash (/oe/openembedded/recipes/psplash/psplash_svn.bb
/oe/openembedded/recipes/psplash/psplash-angstrom_svn.bb).

Well, this is not so basic: only 2 images are using psplash-zap!
But you're right, an RFC would have been more appropriated than this thread.
