What a good idea.

Here's the hyperlinkified link to the {systemd-homed.service, systemd-userdbd.service, homectl, userdbctl} sources from the PDF: https://github.com/poettering/systemd/tree/homed

Hadn't heard of varlink: https://varlink.org/

Is there a FIPS-like subset of the most-widely-available LUKS configs? Otherwise home directories won't work on systems that have a limited set of LUKS modules.
