I did this some years ago by running a shell script as my window
manager which in turn ran my window manager of choice. When that window
manager exited the script would check an atom to determine which
manager to run next. One thing that I planned to do but never did was
to make sure that the window manager ran for at least 30 seconds as
this script will restart your window manager if it dies. I have
attached the script if anyone is interested, you have to change all
window managers so that they set the atom to quit before exiting.
