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.
