Here, gdm is used as graphical login (see code in /etc/X11/prefdm).
the WM WindowMaker has an entry for it:

% cat /etc/X11/gdm/Sessions/Window\ Maker
#!/bin/sh
exec /etc/X11/xdm/Xsession wmaker

And then appears in the Session list of gdm.
You probably have to restart gdm ti achieve the same effect
(Ctl-Alt-BackpSpace) from the login screen.
