Subject: Re: Why is greetd greeter user in so many groups?

Hello,

This change broke greetd on my side as I am using it with 
gtkgreet.

While greetd is running as root, specific greeter started by it is 
not.

This many groups was required to:
- make it able starting graphical greeters with user greeter
- access to seatd's socket file

I admit that, initially it was not clear what is needed, and how.
But now it is ok, I suggest to make groups configurable for both
greetd (56699) and seatd (56690).

This way is most flexible as how user prefers to use them.

Could your please have a look at these?

Once we done, I would like to submit at least gtkgreet as well.

Thanks in advance,
muradm
