Interesting thread.  I'm having fun finding ways to do the same things 
under "the shell" as I did with panels.  I put all of the missing 
widgets on the desktop (most of them anyway, those that allow placing on 
the panel) and then just call them up in a gnome-terminal.

"The shell" takes some getting used to and us OldFarts don't take well 
to change, but I am finding that the more I use it, the more I 
understand the thinking that went into the design and the easier it is 
becoming to use.

Just need it to settle down and not break when updates are applied. 
Bugs have been submitted.

BTW, what happened to wobbly windows?  Was that someone else?
