with systemd version >= 204 and a display manager with systemd support
(eg. gdm >= 3.10)
it almost works out of the box.

(note: you don't have to follow the "next steps", systemd will create
the
udev rules
for you.)
Install all the preferred desktop environments and your people can
choose
their
desktop in gdm
If you use nvidia graphic cards, you need to patch the xserver see:

good luck,

What if you want multiseat with 6 or 8 seats?
When will an xserver per video-output be available?
As long as you have enough graphic cards:
#loginctl attach seat1 /sys/devices/.../drm/card1
#loginctl attach seat2 /sys/devices/.../drm/card2
#loginctl attach seat3 /sys/devices/.../drm/card3
#loginctl attach seat4 /sys/devices/.../drm/card4
...etc...
Check
#loginctl seat-status seat0
to see how many seats can be created.
You will get the best results with the open source drivers
