yes, and these issues are being raised with the relevant developers.

Unity is a shell for Gnome, but it is not Gnome-Shell. Unity will be 
shipping with most of the stuff that is considered the Gnome 3 desktop, 
but there will be some bits and pieces that are Gnome 2 I believe. The 
Gnome desktop is a heap of applications from the Gnome project, 
including stuff like Gedit, Orca etc. One application in the full Gnome 
3 desktop is Gnome-Shell. That isn't being shipped by default but that 
application can be installed.
