Ah, found it.

This is based on .desktop files found in the "data" directory for ksmserver 
(KDE's session manager).

Basically any base directory coming from this command
% kde4-config --path data

followed by subdirectory ksmserver/windowmanagers
e.g.
/usr/share/kde4/apps/ksmserver/windowmanagers

Cheers,
Kevin
