   the two most iconic things about openrc are the green/yellow/red ` * ` at the left, and the `[ ok ]` in the right column
   
   but the `[ ok ]` is probably impossible to make it display consistently... gaah...

     @navi Because of tty/pty resizes?

     @lanodan yesn't, but mostly rc_parallel which i wanna make the default eventually (and hopefully soon), tho even in serial mode it dos sometimes break
     
     the way ebegin/eend works atm is that ebegin prints the ` * Doing nya ...`, then eend just emits "cursor up, cursor $COLUMNS - 5, print [ ok ]"
     
     this obviously doesn't work in parallel since there will be multiple processes outputting at once, and it doesn't work in serial if there's any other output between the ebegin
     
     i have an idea of how to fix that, but i'll have to test it later and hope it's a decent design

     @navi Ah yeah, I've been using rc_parallel=yes here for ages.
     And checking tty1 (I toss out agetty.tty1 to keep it clean) it seems to be working fine, although maybe there's few times where it looks funky.

     @lanodan it really depends on how many services start at once
     
     and one of the patches i wrote improved the parallelism quite a bit, which made the output even worse (i'd often get 4 or 5 lines on --no-clear tty1 with just the `[ ok ]` and nothing else due to miss timings)
