More ideally, you'd do:

KDE - apt-get install kubuntu-desktop
LXDE - apt-get install lubuntu-desktop
XFCE - apt-get install xubuntu-desktop

Then you get the rest of the environments as well as just the DE or
window manager - the set of apps that properly integrate into KDE,
LXDE or XFCE in place of the Gnome ones.

Unity's got enough Gnome 3 in it that for Gnome-shell you just want to
do apt-get install gnome-shell
