There are two new subprofiles under desktop, one for GNOME and one for
KDE. Users that have only one of those two DEs may choose the according
subprofile. Users of other DEs or WMs may stick to the desktop profile.

Attention: KDE or GNOME specific USE flags have been stripped from the
desktop profile. More specifically:
GNOME subprofile contains: USE="eds evo gnome gstreamer"
KDE subprofile contains: USE="kde"

(I'll commit the change on Friday, 26 Mar 2010)
