That's what I would do too :-) For 11.04, the focus is on getting Unity-with-GL as good as we can. However, in time for the LTS, we will want a 2D experience which shares enough of the interactions that it doesn't require a second set of documentation. As Ryan Prior pointed out, Unity is unproven. We're confident in it - enough to commit to it for 11.04, and the design has been flattered with imitation elsewhere, so that's reassuring too :-). But having the existing Gnome 2 style panel-based fallback is fine in 11.04 because it provides a familiar environment for those who want it, and is stable and well trusted. Mark
