DISCLAIMER: My knowledge in this area is rather limited, so please bear with me! Having that out of the way: First off, I appreciate any effort made in that direction! However, I have one question I deem important, namely: Will elogind display the same behavior as systemd-logind regarding killing long running processes upon user logout? IMNSHO it should not, i.e. it should follow the principle of least surprise by not killing background user processes on logout. From https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=825394 I gather that it is possible to configure this in sd-logind, so I simply assume the same holds for elogind as well. However, in message #256 in that same thread Martin Steigerwald asserts that this setting breaks shutdown (in the sense of not behaving exactly the way it used to with sysvinit). Will elogind suffer from the same regression, or will that issue be taken care of? In case this were trivial questions with obvious answers: Sorry for wasting your time!
