This might be a stretch, but it could also be quite cool :) I would divide dyno start in two: a web proxy that responds to requests quickly while waiting for the actual service to start. Check out https://github.com/dblock/heroku-forward - it's an em-proxy that is up almost immediately and is capable of responding to requests. Right now it just queues them until the actual web server is started, but it could very well respond immediately with something like "the service is starting". I'd love a pull request that gives users that option.
