You (GNOME) might have done so, but the messaging is lost. What messaging, I constantly run into is "Making changes to how GNOME is set up by default is a detriment to the GNOME experience and should not be done." yes, it should not be done. in the same way that modding a car most of the time removes the road-worthiness of the same, and you should be aware of that. should you decide to continue, there are ways in which this not only is possible, but it's also easy to do. you pay the price of stuff potentially breaking, so there's that. Look at how you messaged your reply to me and realize that tone of snide, sarcastic superiority is how unwelcoming Gnome has become. wow, sarcasm: now a novelty on LWN and in an open source project. something that never happened before, and it's now unwelcoming. oh, sorry: I again used sarcasm - targeted at somebody that never really bothered (to his own admission) to check before writing off something that I worked on.

You are over-reaching on the "never bothered to check". Never bothered would not mean I haven't tried using GNOME3 at all. I changed over my desktop and used it for 3 weeks on Fedora-15 and am using it again for Fedora-16. I have asked around for help and gotten the "Making changes to the desktop, screensaver, etc is not to be done." answers.
My issues were solved by Rahul. The systems I have run in fallback mode so I am not using mutter or seem to have any access to it. Such is life.
