Hm, I've seen this argumentation in other places too (from ubuntu forum 
users who prefer the old menu system). I think it's a bad idea for two 
reasons:

* We cannot keep legacy approaches around forever. It will clutter the 
interface with options and clutter the code. If gnome decides on this 
option we should work to improve it (where needed) and not try to bring 
back the old IMHO.
* We should never rely on the legacy solution to provide us with the 
accessibility features. It will always be less discoverable and may 
suddenly disappear.

Making the new control centre accessible should not be that hard. Who 
can we contact about it?
