Which DEs?

Gnome/GDM as default on Fedora led the change. KDE/SDDM did not follow GDM's lead.

On those still using 7 for the GUI, 1 has acquired one or two behavioral
differences from 2-6. I always use 2 & 3, avoiding 1, a practice inherited from my
desire to leave init text untouched unless I run out of ttys and need a sixth.
