Let's hope Fallback mode isn't complete yet then. I have never liked the 
main-menu-at-the-top arrangement with a top and bottom panel (These damn 
16:9 screens don't have enough vertical resolution to begin with!), I 
use a single bottom panel, and I don't mind modifying things to 
accomplish it. I *do* very much mind having that option removed completely.

Interesting. I have not looked at Xfce in a very, very long time.

It may come to that.
