What about making it conditional? Parameter on cmdline? By default off.
So I can mimic that old behavior.

You are right, it's no longer the default with systemd. With Debian 7 it 
was 38400 linux.
But if we want to keep the Debian 8 default we should switch to:

ExecStart=-/sbin/agetty --autologin ${LIVE_USERNAME} --noclear %I \$TERM

As in getty@.service.
