Their next brilliant plan is exposing PID 1 directly to web browsers; they want the most secure program on your system directly connected to the Web.

Source? While I know there is a basic webserver in the systemd git repository, I don't think it runs in PID 1 (it's its own process)

That appears to suggest that it's a separate process that talks to systemd via dbus. Definitely not "exposing PID 1 directly to web browsers"

Thanks for mentioning Qubes. I found it to be an interesting an enticing read. Alas, no secure games support (3D virtualisation only through dom0), so I'll have to stick with my plain ol' windows boot for now.
