The items in the gnome control panel are already grouped by categories
(Hardware, Internet, system,...).
Why not used theses groups in the System menu? Instead of current
preferences/administration?
This way it has advantages of both the system menu and the control
panel : access easiness and logic

I think if the Control Panel was added in addition to the two menus, it
would confuse people as well. Perhaps just have the Control Panel by
default, but have an easy-to-access setting that switches it back to the
menus.
