There's a lot of devices that can't run gnome-shell but can run the gnome 2 configuration perfectly. With dependencies like that on devices with small amounts of space you end up with a lot of extra stuff you don't want or need. There must some other way to achieve it for those that want it without forcing those that can't have or don't want it to have unnecessary isssues and deps. Given that "yum upgrade" isn't a fully supported method for upgrade I don't see any issue with documenting that they then need to do a "yum groupinstall gnome3" as the documented ways of doing yum upgrade have always suggested to do similar to get new apps that weren't previously installed.
