OK--I'm confused here. Are you saying that Mint (I've never used it) cannot install other desktop environments?

No, but it is definitely an afterthought, and something that is not encompassed as an actual sanctioned release. That’s pretty much why I went to Kubuntu for my desktop. When I get around to reloading my media player, I’ll be dropping kubuntu on it as well.
You can, but like with any other DE, it has it’s drawbacks. I originally did install KDE to Mint, but too many hiccups :/
