This seems to work. However, given that this single line is now >1
KB and more than 3 times as long as my work-around service, and
heavily depends on the system configuration, I doubt whether it's
actually less hackish. (I do occasionally change my swap partitions.
I also build system images to run on different machines.)
One could try to auto-generate this, of course. Not too hard, but
when should it run? From a systemd service run during boot, which
modifies another systemd run during boot -- doesn't seem like a good
idea. (And it would break if swap partitions are added/removed after
boot.)
So I'll stick with my work-around, but I think the above can perhaps
serve as an example for what to do in systemd interally (the only
place I could image it working reliably), maybe similar to the patch
in https://github.com/systemd/systemd/issues/1902 (but I don't know
the internals well enough to really tell).
