Maybe adding this back into GDM would help with bugs like the following no? http://bugzilla.redhat.com/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=121840 http://bugzilla.redhat.com/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=121813 So, what was this "elaborate rationale" for keeping Red Hat's patch for using switchdesk? With switchdesk, I have never been able to add another WM to it's GUI (the ones in there are hardcoded?) but have been able to get an entry for it in the GDM session screen. Therefore, if there was an "Make default" on the GDM session screen, this should mean I could make the new WM permanent.
