On the other hand, albinard, I wouldn't be surprised if systemd had already taken over the display server space. One ring to rule them all. :)
Sadly most authors are more interested in page views than facts.

Not directly, but you pretty much require Logind to get things up and running if you are to use Wayland.
This in that Logind will act as the go-between to grant the WM/compositor the "root" rights needed to talk to the graphics hardware, as best i can tell.
So pretty much the same "issue" as with having Xorg running as root (sooner or later something has to if you want things to work).
