There are some interesting interactions between usplash and 'console
owner'. It would do no harm to leave that task open.

Not really. cryptsetup's upstart job is the one that actually uses
'console owner'. The jobs upstart itself ships doesn't use it any more,
except on some error paths where X isn't started. Removing support for
'console owner' from upstart would only be feasible if no jobs needed it
any more, so I don't see how it could block this bug.
