Well I kinda get that using it for containers and such like could be useful, but I also suspect it should be bus or socket activated rather than statically enabled... like localed, datetimed etc. Any reason to enable it statically? (I guess it maybe has to do stuff by itself, but I would figure udev should kick it in via the setup link built in in most cases - but I guess that wouldn't work inside containers, so perhaps this is where things break down and you need it statically enabled).
