That still needs a login manager supporting *kit, I guess? (I mean,
users logging in with startx and people using xdm, slim etc., could they
use at_console?)

gdm/kdm support ConsoleKit. For startx, there is a possibility to either patch xinit [1] or provide a Xsession.d script within consolekit (as Ubuntu does it). xdm and slim don't support ConsoleKit, so yes, they won't be able to support at_console. But then again this login managers are not installed by default.
Someone installing xdm can also still use the group based policies, imho.
