Re: [ros-dev] [ros-diffs] [sginsberg] 36894: - Notify umpnpmgr about logon after the shell has initialized - This makes it possible to progress if userinit crashes due to heavy debug output (due to timing issues in its communication with umpnpmgr), which would leave you stranded with no shell. Not really a hack, as it doesn't hide or fix the crash -- just limits it to a missing "Pending device installations" prompt in case there are any pending. Also, it appears to be done the same way on Windows.

I would like to hear if this change is agreed with Herve or not, and  
if not, what's his opinion about it.
