Your proposal 


  Depends: ${misc:Depends},
           task-desktop,
+ # Mention the preferred theme before sddm, otherwise another theme will be used
+          sddm-theme-debian-elarun | sddm-theme,
           sddm,
-          sddm-theme-debian-elarun | sddm-theme-debian-elarun,
           lxqt,


will not work. 
sddm-theme-debian-elarun itself recommends sddm, so installing
sddm-theme-debian-elarun will pull in sddm anyway, no matter what you do else.
And sddm pulls in most of the KDE environment, including kwin.

So I guess we will need to remove both, sddm-theme-debian-elarun and sddm,
from the list here, if we don't want kwin (and all the other KDE stuff).

Leaves us (or lxqt people, in CC) with the question, if some other theme package
is needed as a replacement from the above...
