Even from technical POV, could please someone explain - why cannot GNOME define some reasonable cross-desktop dbus interface (not tied to particular internals of systemd), standardize it on fd.o, provide single implementation (in systemd) and let other OSes care about themselves - in _friendly_ manner, as you Vincent say? If that interface is well designed - I do not think it would be hard for others to implement it. Why introduce hard dependency on the daemon which is not a total standard even in Linux world? The whole concept about GNOME OS seems to be more dangerous than useful... This idea comes up every time GNOME wants to alienate somebody or something.
