I think Gnome3 has the potential to work very well but it is new and

of windows that open for applications - eg are there equivalents to
the nodoka or glider window decorations that have existed for some
time in Gnome2 ?


There has already an extension gnome-shell-extensions-user-theme, it will allow you to apply a style from ~/.themes/[Theme Name]/gnome-shell/gnome-shell.css. Afaik, there has already a gnome3 theme available on gnome-look.

I have been testing the last available iso for the Gnome 3 test day in
the past evening or so - and it is certainly working much better than
a few weeks ago though there are still some bugs that remain and it is
not always fully stable yet - there is time before final GA though!

I am also still not clear on whether it is easy to create a launcher
for a program that is not in the system by default - for example if I
want to run a nightly build of Thunderbird, and I have the binary
available on the system, can I set up an icon that will be in the dash
to launch it in the analogous way to setting up a custom launcher in
Gnome2?

A .desktop file needs to be placed in /usr/share/Applications or ~/.local/share/applications/.
