I won't comment on the more technical issue raised by Svante.
I believe that, perhaps after more window managers are working, starting
a dm by default might help people just wanting to give Hurd a go to
perceive it as a kernel capable of sustaining a modern o/s, more
readily.
I think it all depends on whether the Hurd project is at a stage where
providing the 'most modern' user experience possible to the broadest
audience possible is desirable, or whether this would lead to
frustrations for potential users and/or devs.
Personally I would say wide exposure is better. Anyway, my 2 cents as an
interested lurker :-)
Best wishes,
Alex
