The *dm is the parent process of the server so it may restart
it. While this is not the default behaviour, some *dm let
you specify this (paths may vary between distros):
GDM - in /etc/X11/gdm/gdm.conf set AlwaysRestartServer=true
KDM - in /etc/kde/kdm/kdmrc set TerminateServer=true
XDM - I only know an interactive way (search for abort-display
in xdm(1)
I use it in GDM for different reasons (since I have RANDR in
my KDE sessions I didn't try the color-depth thingy yet).
