What's worse is that it's harder than it used to be to change the 
desktop---desktop style is no longer a login-time selection. In fact, I 
am not sure what is the recommended method nowadays--- groupinstall KDE 
+ groupremove Gnome? but this can't be right for XFCE which I think 
shares stuff with Gnome..

I agree with Adam that the solution isn't to force a choice early on, 
but the flip side of it is that it should be easier to choose on an 
installed system.
