No. The wiki suggests to set Type=idle for the getty service, and this should
avoid the pollution of the prompt, but fails to do so. By contrast, Sudara has been forced
to set Type=idle for any other services that was polluting the getty prompt.
Nonetheless it is a useful workaround until someone upstream happens to care
about the bug.
