In general, Cockpit has been built so that we could support systems
without systemd, but it hasn't been a priority. This means three things:
1. Using older sysvinit scripts to start up. As you noticed cockpit-ws
can do this just fine, but nobody's written the scripts yet.
2. Making the systemd journal dependencies in the C code optional at
compile time, such as the stuff in src/common/cockpitlog.c
3. Replacing large parts of the UI that use systemd, hostnamed, etc.
Once we're further along with componentizing things, this will
become easier. It would be rather frustrating to attempt this right
now.
