So?  I don't think you read what I wrote very well...

As I explicitly stated in the bit you quoted above, I want to run
/GNOME/, but I do not want to run /Metacity/.  See?  One is a desktop
environment, and the other is a /component/ of a DTE.  If you run
GNOME with RH 8, then by default you get Metacity.  Changing it to
something else, while /still running GNOME/, is fairly difficult.  It
should not be.
