Yes.. freedom of choice is why we are here. Also, the priority is those
packages which actually reqire *systemd* (cups, udisks2, gvfs,
util-linux, sane-utils, consolekit, policykit-1.. and more).

That's a lot of work already and why some of us are at the moment still
relying on 3rd-party/"unofficial" packages.
