 Folks,

 [cut]

I'm really curious to know how many others here have come to a similar
conclusion, and what folks are looking at (in my case, SmartOS is
looking better and better).

I am strictly a Desktop user (other than an occasional use of xampp) so your survey doesn't really include me. But I am equally upset about having this s**t taking control of my Desktop. Gnome's shenanigans are why I moved to xfce on wheezy. But now even xfce will be drawn into the systemd dependency circle. I am pissed. However, I am in no rush to run to an alternative. My production machine still runs squeeze which will be supported until 2016 and I imagine wheezy EOL will also be extended when the doo-doo hits the fan in userland. So I'm going to wait and see what develops in the coming months and years before I start shopping too seriously.
