I have no help to offer regarding mythtv, or your shutdown/wakeup
scheme.

I'm interested in your GNU screen problems, though:

So, just to be sure we are on the same page, you do all of the above
as userjoe and then, after waiting 60 seconds and logging back in
again as userjoe,

  $ screen -ls

tells you that there are no sockets in /run/screen/S-userjoe ?

You are refering to one of these bug reports, I guess, which were
marked fixed in version systemd/230-2 ?

  #825941 - screen is killed by systemd when the user logs out
  https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=825941

  #825394 - systemd kill background processes after user logs out
  https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=825394

I have upgraded a minimal jessie install to stretch, and installed GNU
screen after the upgrade, and I am unable to replicate the breakage. I
log out, and my detached screen sessions survive.

It would be interesting to know what makes the difference.

What output do you get for the following four commands? (I include
output from my own system here for comparison.)

  $ systemd --version
  systemd 232
  +PAM +AUDIT +SELINUX +IMA +APPARMOR +SMACK +SYSVINIT +UTMP
  +LIBCRYPTSETUP +GCRYPT +GNUTLS +ACL +XZ +LZ4 +SECCOMP +BLKID
  +ELFUTILS +KMOD +IDN

  $ screen -v
  Screen version 4.05.00 (GNU) 10-Dec-16

  $ uname -a
  Linux magicbucket 4.9.0-3-amd64 #1 SMP Debian 4.9.30-2+deb9u2 (2017-06-26) x86_64 GNU/Linux
