Emacs Daemon as Service

Hi everyone,

I'm kind of stuck here. I'm trying to write an emacs service:
```
#!/usr/bin/execlineb -P
s6-setuidgid uros
emacs --fg-daemon --user uros
```
Though the server starts it cannot connect to the X display. I assume
there's an explicit way to handle this in s6.

Or should I start another supervision tree owned by me? If so how would
s6-rc talk to it? Does it always have to be specified on the command line?

I'm just hunting for best practices here, any help would be appreciated.

Best,
Uros
