xdm, gdm, and kde all ask the shared/default-x-display-manager at high
priority. Debconf policy is that high priority is for items that don't
have a reasonable default. I think that as long as any of xdm, gdm, or
kdm is the default, that qualifies as a reaonable default display
manager; each of them is usable. If there's some alternatives-style=20
ranking going on to rank more usable display managers higher and make
them more likely to be the default, that's even better.

Anyway, right now an install of debian with gdm and kdm asks which to
use, even at high priority, and I think that's an unnecessary question
to ask for a high priority install.
