Pretty cool trick. I tried it and got mixed results. I'm running without
libsystemd0 here, so I can't have gvfs-daemons. That means there's no
trash icon on the desktop and removable drives don't show up on the
desktop when they're plugged it.

With a dummy equivs libsystemd0, I get a trash icon that works, but the
removable drives don't show up on the desktop. When I remove the dummy
package and install the real libsystemd0, removables show up and
mount/eject work as expected.

I don't have time right now to complete the test, but I'd like to try Adam
Borowski's repackaged gvfs. I'm guessing it will work.
