No, we guys all think dumping a novice user to a login prompt is far
better than dumping him on a screen full of messages with no prompt or
even a blackscreen.
If you want to address the novice user, what do you think makes
support in case of a failing x server easier for the helper AND the
novice user, a black screen, a screen without a prompt but with a
hanging list of messages instead - or a login prompt from where he can
be directed to a solution (or given instructions to provide more
information)?
