I've tried three setups with elogind: xfce + lightdm + slick-greeter [amd64] mate + lightdm + slick-greeter [x32] xfce + slim [i386] using the libpam-elogind-compat hack. All work the same: suspend and some other bits work fine, reboot and shutdown show non-grayed buttons but do nothing after logout. That's a known problem with policykit-1, which is not expected to require changes to packages that interact with it. The libpam-elogind-compat package from experimental is not supposed to ever enter unstable or buster, but functionally doesn't differ from my plan: it affects package dependencies only, without changes beyond dpkg/apt metadata. Once #915407 is accepted, I'll ask you to replace Depends: libpam-systemd with Depends: default-logind | logind but you can't do that yet.
