I think not. I installed F22 workstation, then I run "yum update"
(which translated into "dnf update") and finally I installed XFCE with
the above command

Yes, it does. It also removed libreswan xl2tpd

But this has changed since F21. I'm pretty sure that in F21 the use of
GDM did not lead to the execution of gnome-shell under XFCE (not even
under MATE and CINNAMON, all of those started from GDM)
To me, it looks like a bug (not necessarily of XFCE, say of F22)-
