Known bug. Thanks for reporting.

Can you test with a new user, just in case you have a setting that could 
interfere with that.

I think that the testing program is about testing stock experience 
without ppas installed in order to polish all the bugs. I don't think 
that graphic card drivers could interfere with the network stack.
On other hand, you have to take in consideration that xorg-edgers is a 
PPA quite unstable.

Same as previous bug.

Could you clarify a little about this.

This is the default behaviour in GNOME. But, if you want to put 
shortcuts in the desktop you can enable this by using gnome-tweak-tool 
under the Desktop section.

GNOME doesn't have screensaver (and its settings) from GNOME 3.0.

When reporting bugs in GNOME 3.10 (take notice that 3.8 is the version 
included in Beta 2) please send them in another mail, this could help us 
to differentiate all the sent mails.

Thanks for reporting all these errors.
