As the submitter stated, the problem here is not that splashy doesn't
work, but that it's started too late *after* he entered the LUKS
passphrase [1].  I know this situation because I found the same problem.
And to me, too, this seems a bug in insserv.

I just tested on a clean sid chroot:

1) without insserv
   =====
   [EMAIL PROTECTED]:/# ls -1 /etc/rcS.d/
   [...]
   S02mountkernfs.sh
   S03splashy
   S03udev
   [...]
   [EMAIL PROTECTED]:/#
   =====

2) with insserv
   =====
   [EMAIL PROTECTED]:/# ls -1 /etc/rcS.d/
   [...]
   S02hostname.sh
   S03mountkernfs.sh
   S04udev
   [...]
   S16splashy
   S16stop-bootlogd-single
   [EMAIL PROTECTED]:/#
   =====

Thus, insserv doesn't respect splashy's directives.

FYI, if I move S16splashy to S04splashy I get what is expected: splashy
is started as soon as possible.

Thx, bye,
Gismo / Luca

Footnotes: 
[1] FWIW at least splashy_0.3.10-2 correctly manages LUSK passhphrases,
    so splashy can be enabled in initramfs
