FWIW, 2 and 4 conflict. I think it's in policy now (or soon will be) that a
package cannot modify any conffile, even if the conffile in in the package.
So instead, I suggest:

1) make xbase create an empty /etc/X11/window-managers if it doesn't exist
2) separate twm
3) write /usr/sbin/register-window-manager
