I would not mind much doing the switch to the modular Xserver by
default. But that would mean proper dependency propagation (i.e. C++).

However, an alternative solution would be to remove the 'default' clause
altogether from the choice:

  - if C++ is available, the modular Xserver is enabled by default,
    being the first option in the choice;

  - if C++ is not enabled, then KDrive is enabled, being the only option
    in the choice.
