This is marked as DONE:

8. (Optionally) Patch systemd to parse /etc/sysconfig/desktop at upgrade time 
and generate a symlink from it that is stored in 
/etc/systemd/system/display-manager.service 
and ensures that the original display manager choice is kept.

I have DISPLAYMANAGER="KDE" in /etc/sysconfig/desktop 
but symlink was not generated after Rawhide update.
