+ <entry>Similar to <literal>user</literal> but for sessions which are not fully set up yet, i.e. have no home directory mounted or similar. This is used by <citerefentry><refentrytitle>systemd-homed.service</refentrytitle><manvolnum>8</manvolnum></citerefentry> to allow users to log in via <command>ssh</command> before their home directory is mounted, delaying the mount until the user provided the unlock password. Sessions of this class are upgraded to the regular <constant>user</constant> class once the home directory is activated.</entry>

+ <row>
+ <entry><constant>background-light</constant></entry>
+ <entry>Similar to <constant>background</constant>, but sessions of this class will not pull in the <filename>user@.service</filename> of the user, and thus possibly have no services of the user running. (Added in v256.)</entry>
