Fair point. However, comparing[3] popcon results for xfce4-session[1] and
gnome-session[2], less than 4% of debian users use[4] xfce, compared to a
little over 16% who use gnome.

Hmm. My numbers seem a little suspect there. Is a graphical session
REALLY used by such a small majority of the userbase?

[2] http://qa.debian.org/popcon.php?package=gnome-session
[3] I'm sure I've seen comparison graphs, but can't find how to do that.
