how good will be the gnome shell edition of Ubuntu 13.04?

Luke,
Just a quick response,
Well I have been using HUD a lot and kind of like it.
It does not come in my way as such.
As a joke, let me tell you, I have not gone to the top panel of Unity 2d 
for quite some time to shut down the machine.
I don't use it as well for selecting and connecting to my wifi or mobile 
broadband.
All this works so well with HUD.
Happy hacking.

There will always be the GNOME remix, and I dare say once Ubuntu stops using GNOME completely, then you will see GNOME regularly up to date in future Ubuntu releases.
