Do you mean, technically, at-spi/dbus/libbonobo? Or is it still other packages?

If I understand, not GTK3 libs.

Because I use Debian. And in the next wheezy, I cannot anymore use gnome2. "Classic" mode, or fallback, is by 
default when I try on my virtual machine, and I don't get some wonderful result: I don't find any capability 
to do alt-ctrl-D, shift-F10 (or Applications key) to open contextual menu (this combination makes gnome 
crash). I don't find anymore the same capability to customize preferences of keyboard/shortcuts. Didn't you 
experience this? Is it only a Debian problem? In classic mode, really do we have, as in gnome2, a desktop 
when doing alt-ctrl-D, or as much shortcuts as with gnome2? Your experience interests me.
