So, no automatic upgrade path for users? I am asking again, what is the
rationale for renaming?
I agree that "display-manager" might be a slightly better name than
"xdm", but that's more than outweighted by the trouble that the renaming
would impose on users.

I could run these commands conditionally in postinst to make this
an automatic upgrade for people who have 'xdm' currently installed and
enabled in the default runlevel.
But I really don't think that running these commands is that big an
inconvenience.
