Yes, that is roughly what Christian outlined as the vision for
alternative desktops and the workstation. Note that the software
installer does not currently have the required functionality (install
alternative desktops or other large sets of related software like, say,
'Ruby support').

I don't think that any of the alternative desktops should be release
blocking, though.

And I don't think there should be a 'KDE workstation'.
