He thinks it'd be worse if every desktop environment implements their own solution to comply with these laws.

Sure he has a point there, but putting it in systemd means there will need to be at least one other implementation for systems that don't use systemd...

    Are you suggesting that we should put this field in the kernel instead.

    I'm not suggesting anything specific. But the point of rushing to implement your way into software A to prevent each software having their own implementation does not make sense to me. This is not a proper way to standardise. There are many months left to make a proposal that works for everyone.
