I believe consolekit is deprecated, has this magic been ported to
systemd-logind?

If it has, I don't think it's working quite right - I had to put both
Debian-gdm and my personal account into the video group permanently to
get a GNOME session just now. No magic happening. Consolekit isn't
installed, nothing in the GNOME area seems to depend on it anymore.
