That unity pulls in OpenRC which in turn pulls in most of legacy
system that causes lots of troubles as it is too smart, thus not

Moreover, SystemD developers seems to agree that a service file per DM
is the best approach, so having gdm.service, kdm.service, slim.service
is better than a single wrapper for them.
