Bojan,

Bashing? One issue? No.

That's definitely my perception.
 

I listed quite a number of things that I genuinely believe are not helpful, starting with the fact that new and fallback mode behave in entirely different ways.

That one thing I have to give you. I haven't used fallback mode though; I tried but, probably because of a Fedora bug, my system still uses the shell; so I don't know how different they really are.
 

The other issues are connected to overview, which in theory looks nice, but is really just another kiitchen sink thing.

What you mean there is "in theory looks nice, but in my opinion is really just another kitchen sink thing".
 

Gnome 3 should have applications button on the left of the panel (which should be kept on top, like now, with an option to disappear for folks who like that) that opens dash ribbon and other app icons/menu/search below. Workspace switcher should be next to it, but it should be enhanced so that a click to current space opens a ribbon of workspaces where windows can be moved around from space to space etc. Workspaces should be static. Smart taskbar (similar to W7 or using some new ideas) could be next to that. Expose should be available on request.

What you mean there is "based on personal preference, I would like Gnome 3 to have an Applications button"... and so on.

The fact that the Overview looks like a kitchen sink to you does not make it an objective truth. The fact that it bothers you to get it when you want to launch an app does not make it an objective issue for everyone. The fact that you prefer static workspaces does not mean that everyone does.

I'm not sure I want to keep discussing this, since obviously it's not taking us anywhere. You have a strong opinion, so do I, and we're obviously not going to agree. The only thing I can ask from you is, please don't try to disguise your opinions as facts.
