It is decided between Red Hat, Debian, and SUSE maintainers of systemd to
standardize completely on agetty, and add possibly missing features from
mingetty yo agetty. It's also on the util-linux TODO list.
Would be great if you can let the util-linux guys know the list of missing
*useful* features. Some things in the list above really don't look like they
fit that criteria.
If you really need exotic mingetty features, which are not accepted in agetty,
you can always create an optional package that overwrites the default agetty
setup with /dev/null links and places mingetty there.
But none of that should be in the default setup, in the systemd package, or
differ from upstream, instead upstream agetty should be extended if needed.
Major goal of systemd is to unify across the distributions, and get rid of
needless differences, and get things maintained centrally and not in the distro
packages.
Just in case you want to change anything here now, please direct that to
upstream agetty or systemd and get it changed for all distros and not the SUSE
package of systemd. SUSE will stay as close as possible to upsream.
Hope that clarifies. Thanks!
