Would anybody care to make a recommendation?
How about ditching "Desktop Environment" altogether and using a
"Window Manager" instead?
That's probably a good idea: rather than starting with a DE and
removing stuff, start with a good window manager and add to that if
needed.
I use ICEWM. It has to be configured with a text editor, but you can
then set it and forget it.

* some sort of task-bar (auto-hide required)
* some sort toolbar OK (as long as it's auto-hide)
Got it all. But you have to edit the config file with a text
editor.
That's perfectly fine.
I'll take a look at icewm.
I don't think it's a XFCE replacement, but since it has been mencioned
to take a WM as starting point, I mencion that I've been usin I3 WM and
I'm quit happy about it.
