What's the most sensible default for the progress while asking for a password/a
question?
I put the default to progress unless there is a command line option to pause
while asking. Should I ask Bill to put the "--pause-progress" option to init
scripts or change that to "--dont-pause-progress"?
I am kind of split between the "do nothing unless I say so" and the "do the
most
common thing as default".
This is regarding https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=493035

I'd say it's better to pause implicitly. There's no situation where
it would make sense to ask for a password and *not* pause is there?
