1. In potato, /etc/X11/window-managers is obsolete. Use
update-alternatives --config x-window-manager
instead to select the default window-manager for all users.
2. If the user want to select a window-manager at startup of the session,
use gdm of GNOME (or kdm of KDE) instead of xdm.
3. If the user want to execute the same window manager each session,
create a small file ~/.xsession with execute permissions:
#!/bin/sh
exec <path-to-window-manager-or-session-manager>
where the <...> entry could be something like that:
/usr/bin/gnome-session
/usr/bin/startkde
/usr/bin/X11/fvwm
