I've put together a KDE build manually. Is it possible to use the same format you described with XFCE?

apt-get install synaptic

then locate the desktop manager of your choice, eg type KDE into the search box after you've started synaptic.

Install the common files for KDE Desktop... during unpacking and installing you will have a configuration window pop up...

after KDE is installed reboot and from the drop-down box on the logon screen select kde plasma.

once you're one the plasma desktop you can install wicd and then purge network manager and gnome.

apt-get install wicd
apt-get purge network-manager
apt-get autoremove gdm3
apt-get autoremove –purge gnome*

then magically the year you're living in is 2013 again and not 1985
