That is actually what I have asked just a few days ago in thread
"Systemd as drop-in replacement for udev?" and here I have another
answer. :-)

What about the message in gnome-settings-daemon ebuild?

"gnome-settings-daemon needs Systemd to be *running* for working
properly. ..."

Also, Canek in the thread I have mentioned wrote:

"The GNOME stuff that requires systemd will not work under OpenRC from
3.10 on, you could get strange fails with gdm and
gnome-settings-daemon."

So *I think* for the long run, if not using GNOME, it could be better to
get rid GNOME applications (in my case it was just GDM) and be free to
choose either of systemd, udev or eudev OR fully migrate to systemd
(and be able to use GNOME apps).
