Didier, you're right if the only alternative to xfce is unmanaged X, or
bloatsters KDE and Gnome. However, lightweights such as LXDE without
its addons, Openbox, ctwm, jwm, i3, IceWM, WindowMaker, fvwm don't take
it upon themselves to mess with your system functions such as mounting
and sleep.
To make all of these instantly productive, all you need to do is
install and configure dmenu as your way of running programs. Besides
that, most of them have menus of greater or lesser value.
