So from what I can gather from the GNOME bugzilla that you linked to, 
it was moved to the top panel to save space for when the userlist has 
many entries.

 However, it was also moved to an area (the top panel), that is usually 
populated with elements a user interacts with. In fact when i first saw 
the fedora logo in the top left corner, i clicked it several times, 
thinking it was a user interface element.


cheers,
