I'd prefer if the libraries were kept separate, at least for the ones
for which it is possible without it beeing to painful.
At least libsytemd-daemon should imho be kept separate with a stable API/ABI.
We already have 10+ reverse dependencies of that library in Debian and
the list is constantly growing.
So not having to go through soname transitions affecting potentially
quite a few packages would definitely be a big plus.
