No, it isn't - please don't spread that, it only confuses people.
Fallback mode uses gnome-panel and nautilus instead of gnome-shell. That
doesn't mean it's 'gnome 2'. It behaves quite differently from how GNOME
2 behaved and it's explicitly intended to behave as similarly as
possible to how Shell behaves.
