for my taste, you are taking way too much of the display manager out of
the display manager. what's next? the xdmcp server? from there, it's
only a small step to remove the display manager backend entirely. that's
fine if you are the controlling party, but i don't like it at all. i
prefer to see consolekit as a registry, a utmp on steroids if you like,
with as few "active" components as reasonably possible.
