A "customized" Ubuntu install is not necessarily about the chosen WM/DE
and basic applications such as terminal emulations. Much more important
could be e.g. services that are not started at startup. It's one of the
most week points of Ubuntu and it's flavours, that by default everything
gets started, for no good reasons, but allegedly user-friendliness.
