Hey Mark Just a little correction, the most recent versions of Gnome-Shell have the same menu structure as it is now in gnome-panel. Applications, places and the system menu are the same. They added a frequently used applications thing and a search bar but other than that not much has changed. I think they want to get away from the "old" model but they havent thought of anything concrete to replace it yet.

And there are many things running on your system which don't have icons! So this is the general direction we are heading in.
