That work hasn't been done yet, but it shouldn't be a big deal to make
it work with the new control center.

To answer other gnome-panel & GNOME 3 questions in this thread:

 + I want to have gnome-panel use gtk+ 3, yes. Patches welcome, since
   every time I try to secure time for this, I fail.

 + even if we move to gtk+ 3, there's no hard difficulty in maintaining
   bonobo compatibility for applets, as an external module to
   gnome-panel. We can simply take the compatibility module that exists
   today and move it out of process.

I certainly do hope that this thread indicates that some people want to
step up to do some active maintenance of gnome-panel ;-)

Cheers,

Vincent
