Although I've used it for attaching devices, I failed to mention it.
Sorry old lad.
The basic idea is, rather than copy/paste from 'seat-status' to
'attach', this should be something like embedded 'seat-status' in the
process of attaching the devices, with command completion.

loginctl attach seat-2 - now hiting the TAB shows up ONLY common sys
path of all ATTACHABLE devices i.e.:

loginctl attach seat-2 [TAB] \
/sys/devices/pci0000:00/0000:00:04.0/usb2/2-9/2-9:1. [TAB] \

FINITO

loginctl seat-status seat-2(descriptive lines omitted)
/sys/devices/pci0000:00/0000:00:04.0/usb2/2-9/2-9:1.0/input/input5
/sys/devices/pci0000:00/0000:00:04.0/usb2/2-9/2-9:1.0/input/input6

/sys/devices/pci0000:00/0000:00:04.0/usb2/2-9/2-9:1.1/input/input8
/sys/devices/pci0000:00/0000:00:04.0/usb2/2-9/2-9:1.1/input/input9
/sys/devices/pci0000:00/0000:00:04.0/usb2/2-9/2-9:1.2/input/input10

This is an example of a single device(5 modules/inputs), but in actual
show up should be ALL attachable devices.

Et voilà.
