Fork time? Maybe all the anti-systemd zealots were right all along...

Edit: To address whether it is likely that this change will affect users: Gnome is planning a stronger dependence on userdb, the part of systemd where this change is being implemented. https://blogs.gnome.org/adrianvovk/2025/06/10/gnome-systemd-dependencies/

Final edit: The PR has been merged into main.

    It is optional field and can be unset and set to arbitrary value by the administrator. If you can build your own OS, isn't it easier to just unset this value?
