Is this a serious problem? What's not safe? We used to run Mir servers on arbitrary VTs that already had consoles on them and never had a problem. You get a GUI while the server is running and it returns to a tty upon exit.

This is not safe any more given that gnome-shell runs on 2. We can update this check to ask logind if the foreground console corresponds to a tty session, and only do setupcon --force if it does.
