The virtual consoles will still be around, but really should only be an

select a session that gives you a fullscreen shell (with tabs, windows,
virtual desktops) etc.
A display manager should not need to be installed. On servers, for
example http servers you want an http server to be installed and that's
all. No X server, not even X libraries (if possible).
