I am convinced, systemd want to control everything, including power doesn't it?
Nah, upower wants to control power.
PolKit wants to control process permissions. systemd-logind wants to control login and 'seat' access to consoles. D-Bus wants to control chatter among processes. udisks2 wants to control access to storage. pm-utils and HAL want to control suspend/resume.
And all of them want to convince you that all the others are essential because they're all part of the Freedesktop.org stack. But they won't hurt you if you don't believe in them.
Fair enough, the whole Lennart package then... same end result. Cheers A.
