the startup script does exactly what it was supposed to do; because
there was no default session manager (broken symlink) it falls back to
using the default window manager. The script can only test for the
default session manager, and not every single one available. In your
case the bug was when removing kde it didn't clean up after itself but
you had to do it yourself. This is not a bug in xorg.

** Changed in: xorg (Ubuntu)
       Status: Triaged => Won't Fix
