I second what Sam has said.
GNOME3 has generated some backlash with its way of working---and not been clearly/fully documented such that the preponderance of users can 'get it'.

If you want this new UI behavior, that's fine, and I could even deal with it being the default desktop configuration, requiring me to turn it off somewhere.
But just forcibly enabling it, by default, and giving me no visible configuration setting to turn it off, anywhere, and forcing me to root around with gconf-editor – this is just rude.
Or, perhaps all the missing UI configuration settings: this one, focus autoraise, and others – perhaps there just wasn't enough time to add the UI for these settings, and Gnome 3 replaced Gnome 2 before it was fully cooked.
Whatever the case may be, I just hope that the “we know best, so here's the UI and you're going to like it, because we do, and you won't have any alternatives” meme will not survive.
