I agree

This is true, and I think no other init system has an feature fully equivalent
to systemd --user.
For now I suggest you rely on something else to create the link/enable the
nested user-runsvdir on user login and remove the link on user logout.
For example many desktop have some "session configure panel" to set
components that are automatically started with the desktop at login; you can
run a script that creates the link from there.
Alternatively you can use pam_exec or /etc/profile.d/*.sh , to get an idea
see
https://unix.stackexchange.com/questions/87225/pam-action-on-unsuccessful-login

Not sure there is a proper way to run an action on logout..
None of the above looks satisfying to me but I'm afraid there is no
better way right now.

As a side note:
* I don't believe this feature belongs to an init system, but it would
be better to be
implemented as a set of init independent services that can be run by any init
that is capable of someting like runit's nested runsvdir
* I had an idea and started working on a draft last february but then
run out of time
and stopped, so nothing usable yet. I'll write on this list asking
for testers if/when
I finish that.
