Messing with xfce sounds like mission-creep to me.
Does xfce need messing with in any way to get rid of systemd dependencies?
Then do it.
Otherwise, leave well alone.

I run debian jessie with systemd on my iMac and my main laptop because they need to work. Just about all packages seem to have many more dependencies than they used to.
I don't like it, but for the moment that is how it is.

For 'normal' users xfce is a good choice.
I use xfce fluxbox and ctwm depending on mood, tasks, and hardware.

I used to swear by it, somewhere around 1998-2000.  Then, out of
nostalgia, I recently given it a look -- and failed to find a
_single_ improvement.
There are some small changes, or "improvements" if you like, but it
worked well in 1997 and it still works well in 2015. The only thing you
can add is bloatware IMHO ;-)

On the other hand, there are regressions -- it
doesn't play well with Debian menu anymore.
You may be right, I have no idea, simply because I don't use the menu.
IIRC there is a Debian menu after a fresh install, bus as I copy the
GNUstep dir right after a fresh install I will probably never know :)
