I was trying it on F32. I was ready to see various annoyances, since
the proposal says that a lot of issues will be only fixed in F34, but
I hoped that in F32 the desktop will at least look normal when I log
in :)

Probably not much :) I was just curious to see how good/bad the
situation is currently on F32. From the optimistic wording in the
change request I imagined that most things already work and the latest
releases only fix some final annoyances... but maybe this is more true
about F33 than F32, or I just have some weirdness in my existing
configuration...
