How is this different from the status quo? There are several systemd
profiles available that make use of the files
in /usr/portage/profiles/targets/systemd/ to make the proper package
settings for using systemd on gentoo. AFAIU, a user should only need to
switch the profile, install and configure systemd itself and configure
their bootloader to start using systemd.
