Well, which services are those you believe should be started late? getty? prefdm? I think it is sufficient to order them against rc-local, since neither service actually needs to be started that late really. I see no problem with allowing early logins. In fact I think it is a feature even. Note that in systemd the "systemd-user-sessions.service" unit is the point where users can actually login. i.e. it manages /var/run/nologin. Or to turn this around: I actually believe that fact that rc-local is started and finished before the gettys/prefdm is the more interesting feature than that it is really started after everything else.
