I already setuid root my X executable so slitt can run it. * weston can use systemd to find the directory in which to put its control socket, or you can set the environment variable $XDG_RUNTIME_DIR in your shell before running it.

I think Wayland is going to be the main issue in Jessie++, because it was implemented with a systemd dependency right from the start.
