Unity-settings-daemon still depends on gnome-settings-daemon schemas. It is undesired as it requires to modify code in all unity related components when upstream drops some gsettings schemas.

gnome-settings-daemon > 3.33 drops/modify media-keys schemas in an undesired way that it can't easily be reverted. So it's better unity uses it's schema.

Since this is a huge task it can be achieved gradually.

1) Ubuntu 19.10

- Port media keys to use com.canonical.unity.settings-daemon
- u-s-d will still use org.gnome.settings-daemon in dbus
- everything else remains the same

2) Ubuntu 20.04

- Port rest of plugins to use com.canonical.unity.settings-daemon
- u-s-d registers as com.canonical.unity.settings-daemon
- u-s-d will keep using org.gnome.session
- Everything else will remain the same
