According to the x-window-system package description, it's the X
Window System.

Since the options are the K Desktop Environment and GNOME desktop
environment, I think it may be more user-friendly to change "session
manager" to "desktop environment".  For example,

 _Description: Default X Window System desktop environment:
  Please select which desktop environment will be the default when the
  X Window System is started.
