> UI is a UI.

Don't want to be difficult here, but kinda isn't. When I'm sitting back in my chair, with my hands _not_ at my keyboard, then the graphical UI + mouse is it.

You can use Gnome-Shell without using the keyboard. There's a list of all apps in overview, and they are also categorized like the gnome 2 menus if you want. You can add them to the favourites bar on the left side of the overview screen, and you can get to overview without touching the keyboard.
