Hi Alex,
I liked that statement of not being stuck with old unity and thus 
loosing out on new accessibility enhancements.
Just wished to know the exact steps once I download Ubuntu 14.04.
Should I just boot into the installed version and do sudo apt-get 
install gnome gnome-shell?  or just gnome will do?
Secondly, to do this Unity 3d must be somewhat accessible, at least good 
enough to help me go into terminal.  Then how to change the display 
manager to litegdm?
If this really works out great, I might make my own remaster with gnome 
shell.
happy hacking.
Krishnakant.
