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.
