   I have read several of your posts expressing concerns over the state
and functionality of Gnome.

   Fedora is so much more than Gnome 3 ... I would encourage you to try
a different DE - most people I know who have not been thrilled with the
direction of Gnome have turned to either xfce or kde - you might want to
try them - they both seem to have many of the features you no longer
easily find in Gnome ...
