So what is delivered by the gnome3 team PPA is mostly unusable right now
- I'm still waiting for good 2.91.4 builds to come through from Debian -
 and the ricotz PPA is a weird no-mans-land, with just the shell, and
with Unity & Compiz using global Mac-style menus, when you switch to
gnome-shell you don't have any menus any more.

I'd really like to figure out how to get a proper GNOME 3 experience
without switching distros, but if I have to, I will (but then, we'll be
sending a hell of a message to the users of the most popular Linux
distro out there).

Cheers,
Dave.
