Good reason. I handle this by using gdm (or kdm) and having the
different options in the session selection. I currently have Xfce,
GNOME, KDE, mwm and vtwm as choices. I use Xfce 99% of the time but
have the GNOME & KDE for letting others use my system when needed. mwm
& vtwm are there because I use them on most of my servers and it's
easiest to make menu configuration changes on my laptop then scp the rc
files to the servers.

Heh, you sound like you're almost as lazy as I am. ;-)
