Currently systemd-multi-seat-x wrapper is still needed in some multiseat setups.
When -seat option is passed with an argument different from seat0, systemd-multi-seat-x does the following:

1. pass option -sharevts to real X server;

2. create a special xorg.conf file with the following content (or similar):

Section "ServerFlags"
    Option "DontVTSwitch" "true"
EndSection

Section "InputClass"
    Identifier "Force input devices to seat"
    Option "GrabDevice" "true"
EndSection

The purpose of this bug is to enable VT sharing (no need of passing -sharevts) and disable VT switching (no need of Option "DontVTSwitch" "true" in xorg.conf) when seat is not seat0.

Another patch for evdev driver is needed to get rid of Option "GrabDevice" "true" in xorg.conf
