I may have misinterpreted this from you (see the bug report I mentioned) :

"
I'd appreciate a patch. I really need to re-read the policy for window
managers, I'm not up to date on the requirements.
"

I could modify the patch so that it installs the alternative all the
time, but I implemented it that way because Policy doesn't mention
the manpage.
