Offering a no-systemd Gnome is fine with me, even though I'll be
sticking with Openbox. But please, please, PLEASE, put in sufficient
safety mechanisms that no future update of this no-systemd Gnome can
possibly pull in any systemd code.

Also, because of the likelihood that future Poetterization will
temporarily make no-systemd Gnome unavailable on Devuan, please don't
make it the default User Interface.
