Ubuntu just started using logind in 13.04, but haven't adopted the rest of systemd. Some parts (journal, systemd core, udev) can't be detached, but a lot of the peripheral software outside the init -> maintain services -> log events process are optional.

Ubuntu is splitting logind from systemd with no help from the systemd maintainers, because some gnome projects have started requiring logind. That effort is spent undoing Lennart's work swallowing most of the consolekit code base into systemd. The systemd maintainers won't accept patches that make logind a separate project again.

systemd-logind doesn't use code from consolekit. It has been written from scratch. ConsoleKit itself has been unmaintained for a long time.
