Thanks.

I did not find detailed docs on how to call StartTransientUnit()
I have been reading the systemd sources to figure out the signatures of the
call and its parameters. Did I miss API documentation?

I would like to test these changes but I have failed to update a F20
system to newer code drops. Do you plan to have a F20 build of the
newer systemd at least for testing?
