Ralf... I'll say it in few words.

For those who don't like how GNOME3 looks like or how it behaves, start 
thinking in switching to another DE or WM. GNOME3 with its gnome-shell is 
here to stay, we like it or not, and I think the fallback mode will be 
removed sooner or later so do not trust much on it.

For those -like me- who were a bit reluctant to the change, I'll just say 
it is a matter of time to get GNOME3 and gnome-shell the way we like. 
Debian has now gnome-shell 3.0 which is the first of the available 
versions for the new DE, gnome-shell 3.2 will be by far more configurable 
and gnome-shell 3.4 will be even better to customize.

All we can think it can be done, the shell relies on text based files so 
creating new themes won't be a very difficult task and mutter (the 
composite window manager) in join with clutter (the graphics stack) are 
both very extensible by means of chunks of javascript/python/ruby code so 
I'd expect to be also highly tweakable.
