I think that will work great. I think if we wanted to stick with xfce it 
could be minimally installed too (just xfwm and xfce4-panel). But I think 
you intend to be able to install any DE from the ISO so the ISO DE would 
not be part of the install anyway.

I find running xfce4-panel (LXDE's panel may work just as well) on top of 
any WM from openbox to fvwm or even twm to whichever super wm is new these 
days would probably give us a usable DE. (it may even make Unity easier to 
use for more complex setups)

We will want to add the systray at least to support netman, volume 
controls, etc.
