Consolekit was also needed for tdm to implement mulit-seat. I do not know the
current state of systemd inheriting the multi-seat functionality from
consolekit, but when I was building TDE for Arch, when arch dropped consolekit
and went to pure systemd, it broke tdm and there was a big push to implement
multi-seat without consolekit that was never quite brought to fruition.

Slavek probably recalls that mess. A good introduction of the
consolekit/polkit/udisk relationship is:
