Instead of emotional outbursts, please rather document the reasons you don't like mdkkdm, as others have done on the cooker wiki. Maybe the only reason you detest mdkkdm is that you can't log in as root by default, and if they change the default to be kdm, maybe they will disable root login there by default too (since it really is best to prevent this, and force users into good habits, although of course you can change this if you like your bad habits).
