this is afaik a correct way as long as a single user does not have
multiple sessions.

systemd currently does not parse /etc/profile (and never will?)
you can work around by creating a shell script like this:

cat <<EOF > /bin/systemd-session
#!/bin/bash -l
exec /usr/bin/systemd --user $@
EOF

and point your xdm-config to /bin/systemd-session
(this lets bash start a 'login' shell, thus parsing /etc/profile. and
exec's systemd afterwards)
