> In what way is systemd's solution inadequate?

I think primarily the problem that some people have with systemd's solution is that it requires running systemd as the system's init, which some do not want to do. According to Lennart in http://lwn.net/Articles/575847/ there are "lots of cases where you don't need systemd", but if you want to use cgroups you (will) need some kind of manager.

systemd's solution may well be perfectly adequate (or, in my mind, way better than 'adequate'), but it does require systemd.

Yes, but only one can be used at a time. So any solution that will provide cgroups management will have the same problem as systemd.

No really good way to fix this I expect.
