Given that "drop fallback mode" is an anti-feature, I have a hard time
considering that bug as a 3.8 blocker. It sounds like the maintainer
wants to keep gdm fallback somewhere so killing it before we've
identified the right place to put it isn't helpful.

Also, we should have been frozen for the past 2 weeks; this type of
invasive change should be done sooner in the cycle. Making major
changes after the Freeze like this makes it very difficult for us to
ship the latest GNOME promptly in Ubuntu (since the Ubuntu GNOME team
shares responsibility for half of the GNOME stack with the Ubuntu
Desktop team).
