Another big idea from systemd

Our favorite developer is up to more of his shenanigans.  Now he's out to save us from Unix style home directories.

It's the usual modus operandi.   Identify some use case that .5% of the user base cares about and declare that it doesn't work well with the current solutions.  Talk about the inadequacy of UNIX Version 7 constructs and ignore all of extensions and solutions that the simple elegance of UNIX principles have allowed.  Declare that the whole thing has to be scrapped and replaced with your personal vision of the future.  Because there's no possible way that you can play nice with anything else.

Thanks again to Daniel and everyone who keeps our systems humming along with all that garbage.
