I'll second that.

Over here I use XFCE and am able to start most applications without
even using the mouse thanks to xbindkeys[0].

KDE's konsole is still my terminal emulator of choice, so I do have
KDE-3.5.2's libraries and a few other things installed, but I wouldn't
dream of using the KDE DM again - it's far too bloated and so much
integration that it feels almost like brand-W.
