FWIW, this remains broken. A recent update changed my alternatives away
from startlxde to startxfce4 (even though they have the same priority and
it still thinks the "best version" is the previous setting).
$ update-alternatives --display x-session-manager
x-session-manager - auto mode
link currently points to /usr/bin/startxfce4
/usr/bin/lxsession - priority 49
slave x-session-manager.1.gz: /usr/share/man/man1/lxsession.1.gz
/usr/bin/openbox-session - priority 40
slave x-session-manager.1.gz: /usr/share/man/man1/openbox-session.1.gz
/usr/bin/startlxde - priority 50
slave x-session-manager.1.gz: /usr/share/man/man1/startlxde.1.gz
/usr/bin/startxfce4 - priority 50
slave x-session-manager.1.gz: /usr/share/man/man1/startxfce4.1.gz
/usr/bin/xfce4-session - priority 40
slave x-session-manager.1.gz: /usr/share/man/man1/xfce4-session.1.gz
Current 'best' version is '/usr/bin/startlxde'.
