It does install the other DM (assuming it's part of the package group,
which it generally is). However it doesn't automatically select the new
one for you, which in general would be a bad idea.

What is needed is an easier way for the average user to be able to
switch DMs without editing obscure config files. Maybe some day we'll
all use the One True Desktop Manager, but this is Linux so it's never
going to happen.
