I'm sorry that you feel that way, Craig.  Please note, however, that I 
always make it very clear that these are the reasons that I personally 
don't use it and that I'm not suggesting that anybody else migrate away 
from it unless they too don't like it.  And, I'd like to add that most 
of what I don't like is the result of design decisions that don't make 
the slightest bit of sense to me and that nobody on this list has tried 
to justify.  Not that you have to of course, but it does strengthen my 
belief that the Gnome devs are working in an ivory tower, neither 
getting feedback from nor giving explanations to mere users.  As long as 
what they wanted to give us was something I found easy to work with, it 
didn't matter much, but now, it's just one more reason to leave and 
never look back.  And, you'll note, when there's a post asking how to 
get Gnome 3 to do something, I don't respond with a smart ass post 
telling them to try XFCE, KDE, LXDE or something else, because that 
wouldn't be answering their question.
Yes, Craig, I know that I can install a handful of third party 
extensions and eventually end up with something that's not completely 
unusable for me, but why should I if there are other DEs that work the 
way I want without spending days or weeks of work fussing with them?
