  For systemd, journal compression and journal gateway still have to be 
selectable. IMHO it is not nice for the user to have to navigate to a 
completely unrelated place in order to enable those. So my suggestion is 
to include the Config.in that has these extra options immediately below 
the systemd selection in the system menu.
