 The problem is, next (or N+2) GNOME, KDE and X.org itself will depend on
systemd, and, maybe, X.org will be discontinued at all for Wayland
(or-what-is-name-of-this-technology), which will be even more Linux-centric.

 It is topic for other thread, but this chasing Linux in system features
(hal/udev/systemd/whatever) needed for desktop environment is painful, and
FreeBSD without decent modern DE will fail to attract new users :(
