My thought is we sync with Xubuntu fully to start with, and then find a way to drop all the specifics from seeds - instead base on the metas for ubuntu, kubuntu, xubuntu, lubuntu and ubuntu gnome. Once we're done with that, and still think we really, absolutely need our own desktop, I would base that on something minimal, like xubuntu-core, or even lubuntu-core (or, whatever the name is).
Lubuntu, I would stay away from just yet. I hear the QT version of lxde is doing very well but it is still a very young project, while LXDE has effectively got a stop on development so the work can go into the QT version. XFCE is still the most often used used DE for audio just yet... at least that is what I get from the comments I hear. I would be quite happy using xubuntu as is. The only difference might be in the config directory... but it doesn't have to be.
Having more than one workspace is becoming less of an issue with the spread of dual monitors (I still have four... and use them all). This does not work with laptops of course. But once we have to make any one change to the system config, then any other change becomes trivial. (this does not include our menu file which is aleady trivial and does not require any new directories/session starters etc.
