Hi! I can't answer on the technical part (hope others will), but I can
answer this:

There's no real risk upgrading to GNOME 3, since you can easily switch
off the Shell and use the fallback mode, which is the good old
gnome-panel like in GNOME 2 (but revamped). You just need to go to
System Settings->System Information->Graphics. I agree it could be good
to have this information in the FAQ, feel free to add it now you
know! ;-)
