the fact that moving between apps on different desktops is now a mouse marathon (left corner for overview, mouse all the way to the right click on desktop, mouse most of the way back to the left, click on app). Just try this on a dual monitor display and weep.
I may not be understanding, but why can't you use Alt-Tab and Alt-~ for this, or alternately click the icon in the dash without moving over to the desktops? That works here for me. Is there something about the dual displays that prevents this?
Well I could add the dash and do that which would be slightly less bad but still not great. Using the keyboard means switching mouse/keyboard and for a lot of stuff Gnome 3 is actually ok if you avoid the mouse. If I'm doing stuff like detailing graphical work then having to keep going poking at the keyboard to flip back/forth is annoying to say the least.
