I am not 100% clear on this. My current understanding is indeed that a
launcher is needed.

However, it would be possible to use the logind launcher with elogind,
which is Gentoo's extract of logind from systemd as a standalone
project: https://wiki.gentoo.org/wiki/Elogind. Of course, we don't
currently have elogind as a Buildroot package.

The options would be:

 - logind launcher, with systemd
 - logind launcher, with elogind
 - libseat launcher, with seatd

Best regards,

Thomas
