AFAIK It doesn't have any controls that allow to choose window manager
to start but you can always just create script $HOME/.xsession that
starts your faivorite window manager. This script will override
default settings for window manager.

Personaly I thing XDM is good enought for me so I will not agree with
trashing XDM. However probably another login manager can be default.
