A substantial functionality of systemd does not
depend on dbus anymore.
It is certainly possible to used most of its core
system managment functionality inclusive logging.

In other words, most commands from systemctl and
loginctl do work, aslong as used from root.

These features will need dbus (incomplete list):

-   Access to systemd from non-root
-   Loginctl
-   Timedatectl
