Unless I missed it in my e-mail, and patchwork [1] missed it as well,
no one yet gave a Reviewed-by: tag for it, and since I work on a system
explictly unsupported by systemd, I'm not going to be able to really
do much with it myself, so rely on those who use systemd to care about it.

I suspect the main problem is the very very very small overlap between those
who want both an ultra-modern systemd-based distro and the ancient, unloved
xdm display manager instead of something similarly modern such as gdm, kdm,
lightdm, etc.
