+Prevent the server from detaching its initial controlling terminal. If you
+want to use systemd-logind integration you must specify this option.
+Not all platforms support (or can use) this option.

I'm sure you all discussed the various options for "fixing" this, but I
see three options and I'd like to see some rational for the one you've
picked

 1) Make the missing -keeptty option to override the systemd logind
    integration.

 2) Have systemd logind integration force -keeytty behaviour.

 3) fix systemd to make the systemd/X integration work without the
    -keeptty option?

I just don't know what's likely to break fewer systems, and have no
context in which to evaluate this choice.
