You have been more fortunate then.  My users always seem to find those unknown or unlikely crashes or closes.  We have used KDE/GNOME in the past but they are kind of "heavy" and slow down the VNC session performance when using it over lower bandwidth connections.  We use windows managers like jwm or openbox + lxpanel to provide a desktop session similar to Window's RDP sessions with all the graphical features turned off.  This also allows for restricted the applications that users have access to.  Keeps it simpler for them that way too.

Just so I fully understand the issue, what would you normally do if the WM crashes? Is there a reasonable way to recover in that case?
When WM crashes then applications which are started for example from
xstartup script are not terminated (so your work isn't lost).
I have mainly worked with session managers like KDE (and probably also
GNOME). 

The behaviour allows the vncserver session to be shutdown, if the user
press logout. I don't remember a lost session because of this in the
last years.
