No, without applets and without a new widget system. System tray icons are
still there: in fallback in the old tray, in Shell in the message tray.

All these things work in Shell *and* in fallback mode. In fallback mode they
are pretty much the same as they've always been; in Shell they are in
slightly different locations but still exist. (Firewall and selinux GUI's
are a distro thing.) I'd like to know where you're getting your
misinformation so we can cut that off at the source.

You can turn it on if you care about it that much; the ability hasn't been
removed.

No server admin is going to initiate a server reboot from a GUI menu *today*
and they still won't with GNOME 3. And we're *years* away from RHEL7; give
it time and maybe the UI will reach the level of service status maturity
that would be required to make such a GUI reliable enough to use to judge
what to do with a server.
