Let us not be dramatic. With "Everything" missing, most of it behind unknown auto-hide locations on mysterious sections of the desktop, the change was actually pretty dramatic. An "expose" copy where all my terminal windows randomly re-arrange and the font is too small for me to distinguish them. Apps taking over full screen with auto-front without my control of "always on top". I thought virtual desktops were broken too but after going back to F14 I was told they just changed the hotkeys from ctrl-alt left/right to ctrl-alt-up/down. And whoever decided that the "new message" notification icon of pidgin should be auto-hide clearly is not using pidgin as their IM client :P Similar but less annoying things is hiding the network status per default, nuking my clock preferences, no easy volume control applet, etc etc. gnome3 was not driven by user feedbak. It was driven by getting vendors to install it on factory shipped netbooks. Again, I'm skipping F15 in the hopes that F16 corrects most of these shortcomings and provides a useful interface again to do more then "a single task out of a selection of 3 common tasks".
