Yes, agreed about Xfce, its the logical place to go if you have users you
simply cannot put through Gnome3.  I use fluxbox just about exclusively now,
but recently put someone on windowmaker.  A very old machine, and the only
use is going to be email and web.  They are getting along fine with it.  I
also hate gdm3.  The old gdm let you do all kinds of useful stuff which now
you have to do in gdm3 through editing text files, which you have to look up
on the net to find out what they even are.  

I cannot help feeling that Gnome has totally lost its way.  Its the point
when human interface guidelines cease to be implementing things in ways your
users find easy, and become forcing the user into using things in the way we
want him to whether he likes it or not.

Familiar from the history of revolutionary movements, perhaps!
