Tried u-s-c (with ubuntu-desktop-mir). At first I got a blank screen, but after running `sudo restart lightdm` I was able to log into Unity. The fonts looks a a bit weird and some apps (Firefox, VLC, file selector) are not themed. Otherwise, usable... Nonetheless, when I removed these packages with `remove --auto-remove` and rebooting, lightdm wouldn't start (and I was presented with the "Low graphics" dialog). So for now I'll have to use XMir.
