Can you elaborate a bit on what is wanted in this request? As always, patches welcome; but systemd support is not a priority for cinnamon team, and if anything we're trying to move away from dependencies on it as much as possible.
I want elogind support, so it can be used without consolekit or systemd. See bug https://bugs.gentoo.org/show_bug.cgi?id=599470 for why. Also, because some parts of Cinnamon currently work with elogind, but some don't, so consistency.
in cinnamon 3.6 logind chosen like a default https://github.com/linuxmint/cinnamon-desktop/commit/bcd0ce74ca09f55abd967c4fdfb14972d4a9f4c5 but still possible to reverse this and it will work
