I wonder if there's a definitive list somewhere of what features operating systems should have in order to be proper for running a generic server or desktop.

There's so many blurry lines there. I agree that a secret store is best done as a system level service, but it's so hard to standardize on one api, and yet so easy for a shitty one to become de facto (I.e. X.org).
