Just to pass you some hints. The desktop environment choise is very like any very important personal choise: it is about gui, it is about resources and it is about software manufact (ie, I like C lighter ones). KDE and many Gnome applications are often service and resource usage intensive. Starting the desktop environment with the pc has probably some security benefits by doing that via "xenodm" but it is all to demonstrate. Generally speaking by being under a graphic environment you are potentially incrising the chance of a security attack by a Nlots % due to all the services and applications you are bringing up launching it. Then there are also the "bugs" of of X itself. For these reasons I could prefer to keep full control when to start X and eventually to keep something like Fvwm (but I really do not use it) that is light and super tested under OpenBSD.
