Sure, that's the GNOME 3 fallback for running without Mutter. It makes
sense for Classic to have minimal dependencies.

I'd go for an argument that maybe "Classic" isn't the best name when
GNOME has also changed radically, and isn't as classic as people might
expect. But on technical, philosophical, economic, and practical
grounds, it's better for us to work with the GNOME developers on any
improvements, and not tweak them directly into the Ubuntu packages.
