Is this something that distributions would be expected to enable?
Because I use both systemd and Emacs, yet I absolutely don't want to
have an Emacs daemon started by default in my user instance.

Also, by default user instances are killed when the last session is
closed, which would therefore kill the emacs process and kinda defeat
the point of having a persistent daemon.
