Here's a debdiff that moves gnome-wm.desktop in to /usr/share/applications.
Sebastien - I don't think that the gconf issue you mention is a gnome-session bug. The package installs /usr/share/gconf/defaults/10_gnome-session and runs update-gconf-defaults on install, which uses this file to recreate the default gconf tree in /var/lib/gconf/defaults, which are the default values that get used for new users.
