Big header on top on bottom a toolbar compare to the plasma standard panel and in the middle an vertical align element. For plymounth I would move in the middle the konqui-app-hardware-mascot https://share.kde.org/index.php/s/jXXooedZYlyUqkC with an rotating circle for the booting element. if the harddisk wil be scanned the konqui-app-hardware-mascot could play tetris and when you have to enter the key the mascot could be animated don't know. only an idea.

Note that the splash screen needs to be baked into the kernel image which means a huge wallpaper significantly blows it up and slows down startup, which is why a simple gradient is the best we could do.
