In addition some of us don't use systemd login. Will it still work with the alternative elogind daemon?

Afaik elogind itself does not provide full seat management. That said, seatd[1] exists. I believe that it should work with kmscon, but I haven't tried.

It'd be nice to make elogind/seatd/etc. work for this use case if it doesn't today.
